Food Labelling
Food Labelling
Clear, compliant, and built on the customer’s right to know.
Your product label is more than packaging – it’s a legal requirement and your customer’s first, and sometimes only, source of information about what they’re eating. We help you navigate complex Canadian and U.S. labelling regulations so your products are accurate, fully compliant, and ready to earn the trust of everyone who picks them up.
Our Regulatory Expertise
Label Creation
Building your label right from the start – from formulation to shelf.
We create fully compliant product labels for the Canadian and U.S. markets, built around your product from the ground up. Our service covers every essential component, including:
- Ingredient list in proper order and format
- Allergen declarations compliant with applicable regulations
- Nutrition Facts table in the correct format for each market
- Bilingual labelling requirements for Canada
- Statement of identity, net quantity, and dealer information placement
Whether you’re launching your first product or expanding your line, we make sure your label is accurate, compliant, and ready for the shelf from day one.
Label Review & Compliance Check
Already have a label? Let’s make sure it still holds up.
Regulations change, formulations change, and labels don’t always keep pace – a new supplier or a small recipe tweak can quietly push a product out of compliance without anyone noticing. We review your existing labels against current Canadian and U.S. requirements to catch those gaps before a regulator, a customer, or a costly recall does. Our review covers the same core components as label creation – ingredient accuracy, allergen declarations, Nutrition Facts formatting, bilingual requirements, and required statements – so you know exactly where you stand and what, if anything, needs to change.
FOP Symbol Assessment
Know before you print – does your product need the symbol?
Since January 2026, certain prepackaged foods high in saturated fat, sodium, or sugars must carry Health Canada’s Front-of-Pack (FOP) nutrition symbol. We take your product’s formulation and run the numbers against the regulatory thresholds to tell you clearly whether a symbol is required – and if so, what that means for your label.
Our assessment includes:
- Nutrient threshold analysis based on your product category
- Exemption assessment (e.g., single-ingredient foods, small packages, or foods with health-related benefits)
- Placement and format review to ensure symbols meet regulatory requirements
- Strategic reformulation considerations when adjustments could help avoid an FOP symbol requirement
With our guidance, you’ll know exactly how the FOP regulations apply to your product – before it ever reaches the shelf.
