Rules in England
Labelling law for supplements from Oakwood
Any food supplement sold from Oakwood must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of the Food Standards Agency. In Northumberland, food labelling is enforced by the council’s trading standards or environmental health team.
One label works across England, Scotland and Wales, as Great Britain shares one set of supplement rules.
Begin with our label requirements checklist, then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

What the check covers for Oakwood brands
Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, the food information rules and the GB nutrition and health claims register, and send back a written report with every point marked as fine, advised or must fix. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, not just our own. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.
