Questions from Scot Hay brands

What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?

We check against both sets of rules. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so claims must come from the EU register and the address must be in NI or the EU. Tell us where you sell and we’ll check the label for each market.

What if my labels are already printed?

We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.

Do you only work with Scot Hay businesses?

No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so your location doesn’t matter. Scot Hay deliveries go by tracked courier to ST5.
