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

FAQs for Shirwell
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We’ll still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you what must change now and what can wait for the next run.
What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?
We check against both sets of rules. EU food law applies in Northern Ireland, so health claims must be on the EU register and the address must work for that market. Tell us where you sell and we’ll check the label for each market.
How quickly do you review a label?
We’ll tell you the turnaround when you send your artwork, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.
What do I get back?
A written report, with each item marked as fine, advised or must fix, with suggested wording where needed.
Who checks supplement labels in Devon?
Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Devon, with national oversight from the Food Standards Agency. If you want assured advice, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
