Supplement label compliance check in Shawbost
A written review of your supplement label against the rules that apply in Scotland, for businesses in Shawbost and across Na h-Eileanan Siar.
What the check covers for Shawbost brands
Send your artwork or draft copy. We review it against the Food Supplements (Scotland) 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. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. We check labels designed and printed anywhere, including ones from other printers.

Common questions in Shawbost
What if my labels are already printed?
We can still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you what must change now and what can wait for the next run.
What does the report look like?
A written report, with each item marked as fine, advised or must fix, with suggested wording where needed.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We check against both sets of rules. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so health claims must be on 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 send samples?
Yes. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Shawbost address, showing our materials and finishes before you order.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Shawbost?
Shawbost is in Scotland, so the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003 apply, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
