Supplement label compliance check in Whitby
A written review of your supplement label against UK labelling rules that apply in England, for brands in Whitby and across North Yorkshire.
What the check covers for Whitby 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. It’s a practical review, not legal advice. If you need advice councils must respect, a Primary Authority partnership is the next step. The check covers any label, whoever designed or printed it, not just our own.

Rules in England
Supplement labelling rules for Whitby
Any food supplement sold from Whitby must meet the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003, regulated nationally by the Food Standards Agency. In North Yorkshire, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers for North Yorkshire.
You can sell the same label in Scotland and Wales, since the supplement rules are the same across Great Britain.
A good first step is our label requirements checklist, then review your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

Common questions in Whitby
Can you check a label that’s 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.
How long does a check take?
We confirm the turnaround when you send your label, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.
Do you send samples?
Yes. Ask for a sample pack and we’ll send it to you in Whitby, showing our materials and finishes.
Which labelling rules apply to supplements sold from Whitby?
Whitby is in England, so the Food Supplements (England) Regulations 2003 cover your label, together with the general food information rules. Health claims must come from the GB nutrition and health claims register.
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. Let us know where your products go and we’ll check the label for each market.
