Supplement labelling rules for Ovingham
Products you sell from Ovingham must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of the Food Standards Agency. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by the council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Northumberland.
You can sell the same label in Scotland and Wales, since the supplement rules are the same across Great Britain.

What the check covers for Ovingham 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. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, including ones from other printers. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step.

Questions from Ovingham brands
What do I get back?
A written, point-by-point report, with every point marked fine, advised or must fix, plus suggested wording.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
We can check for both. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so claims must come from the EU register and the address must work for that market. Let us know where your products go and we’ll cover both.
Do you only work with Ovingham businesses?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so your location doesn’t matter. Ovingham orders go out by tracked delivery to NE42.
Who checks supplement labels in Northumberland?
Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Northumberland, with national oversight from the Food Standards Agency. For advice councils must respect, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We can still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
