Label rules that apply in Ripe
Any food supplement sold from Ripe must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of the Food Standards Agency. In East Sussex, food labelling is enforced by council trading standards or environmental health staff for East Sussex.
One label works across England, Scotland and Wales, because the supplement rules match across Great Britain.
A good first step is our label requirements checklist, and then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

What the check covers for Ripe 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. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. For assured advice, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, including ones from other printers.
