Rules in Scotland

Supplement labelling rules for Hourston

Products you sell from Hourston must meet the Food Supplements (Scotland) Regulations 2003, regulated nationally by Food Standards Scotland. At a local level, food labelling is enforced by the council’s trading standards or environmental health team for the Orkney Islands.

Scotland has its own food regulator, but the supplement labelling rules match England and Wales, so one label works across Great Britain.

Begin with our label requirements checklist, and then check your health claims, %NRV figures and nutrient guides.

Common questions in Hourston

What if I sell in Northern Ireland too?

We check against both sets of rules. Northern Ireland follows EU food law, so health claims must be on the EU register and the address must be in NI or the EU. Tell us where you sell and we’ll cover both.

Do you send samples?

Yes, we can. Request a sample pack and we’ll post it to your Hourston address, showing our materials and finishes.

Who enforces food labelling in the Orkney Islands?

Food labelling is enforced by the local council’s trading standards or environmental health team for the Orkney Islands, overseen nationally by Food Standards Scotland. If you want assured advice, consider a Primary Authority partnership with a council.

How long do printed pouches take to reach Hourston?

Pouches take longer to make than labels: your quote includes the lead time, then delivery to Hourston is usually two working days after dispatch.

How many pouches do I need to order?

It depends on the pouch size and finish, and we quote them per design. For small quantities, label stock pouches instead.
