Supplement label compliance check in Sotby
Check your supplement label before Trading Standards, a retailer or Amazon does. Reviews for Sotby brands, done online.
What the check covers for Sotby brands
We read your label line by line: the supplement statements, the nutrient table and %NRV maths, ingredients and allergens, claims, text size and traceability. You get a written report you can act on or pass to your designer. 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, including ones from other printers.

Sotby questions
Do you send samples?
Yes, we can. Request a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Sotby, so you can feel the materials and finishes before you order.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
We can check for both. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, 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.
Do I need to be based in Sotby to order?
No. We work online and deliver across the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Sotby deliveries go out by tracked delivery to LN8.
Who enforces food labelling in Lincolnshire?
Supplement labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for Lincolnshire, with national oversight from the Food Standards Agency. If you want assured advice, you can set up a Primary Authority partnership with a council.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Sotby?
Sotby is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 apply, together with the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
