Common questions in West Mersea
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 be in NI or the EU. Let us know where your products go and we’ll cover both.
Can I see a sample before ordering?
Yes. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in West Mersea, showing our materials and finishes.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from West Mersea?
West Mersea is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 apply, alongside the general food information rules. Health claims have to come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
Do I need to be based in West Mersea to order?
No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so your location doesn’t matter. West Mersea orders go out by tracked courier to CO5.
Is your check the same as a Trading Standards check?
No. Trading Standards for Essex enforce the law; we give an independent practical check before you print.
