Rules in Scotland
Labelling law for supplements from Yarrowford
Any food supplement sold from Yarrowford must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, under the oversight of Food Standards Scotland. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by the local authority’s trading standards or environmental health officers.
Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.
A good first step is our label requirements checklist, and then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.
What we check
- Supplement statements
- %NRV and units
- Health claims
- Allergens
- Text size
- Address and batch

Yarrowford questions
Do I need to be based in Yarrowford to order?
No. We take orders online from anywhere in the UK, so it makes no difference where you’re based. Yarrowford orders go out by tracked delivery to TD7.
Can I see a sample before ordering?
Yes, we can. Request a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Yarrowford address, showing our materials and finishes before you order.
How quickly do you review a label?
We confirm the turnaround when you send your label, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
No. Trading Standards for the Scottish Borders enforce the law; we give a practical second opinion before you print.
Do you check labels for Northern Ireland as well as Great Britain?
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. Tell us where you sell and we’ll check the label for each market.
