Supplement label compliance check in Rapps
Check your supplement label before Trading Standards, a retailer or Amazon does. Reviews for Rapps brands, done online.
What the check covers for Rapps 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. This is a practical check rather than legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, not just our own.

Common questions in Rapps
Do you send samples?
Yes, we can. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Rapps address, so you can feel the materials and finishes before you order.
How long does a check take?
We confirm the turnaround when you send your label, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.
Who enforces food labelling in Somerset?
Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Somerset, overseen nationally by the Food Standards Agency. If you want assured advice, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We can check for both. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so claims must come from the EU register and the address must work for that market. Tell us where you sell and we’ll cover both.
What does the report look like?
A written, point-by-point report, with each item marked as fine, advised or must fix, with suggested wording where needed.
