"We turn the fine print into a position of strength, ensuring your labels are as informative as they are compliant." — Chris Bryant

Our efficient and effective approach takes your labels from the initial draft to the final print. We offer to support you with meeting food labeling regulations for:

• Ingredient Declarations, Nutritional Panels and Allergen Statements

• Health Star Ratings and Health Claims

• GS1 Barcode setup and approval

• USA label requirements

FSANZ compliance in New Zealand requires adherence to the joint Australia New Zealand Food Standards Code, which regulates food ingredients, additives, labeling, and composition. Whilst FSANZ develops the standards, the Ministry for Primary Industries (MPI) and New Zealand local authorities enforce the standards under the Food Act 2014. 

A food label is so much more than just a list of ingredients; it is a legal document and a promise to your customer. At Navigate Food, we specialise in making sure that the promise is accurate and compliant with the Australia and New Zealand Food Standards Code. We have seen many great products get stuck because of a simple labelling error, and we are here to ensure that doesn't happen to you. We take an active, end-to-end approach, guiding you from the very first draft of your label to the final high-resolution print.

We handle the complex calculations for your Nutritional Information Panels (NIP) and make sure your Allergen Statements are clear and legally sound. If you want to stand out on the shelf with a high Health Star Rating or specific Health Claims, we ensure those claims are backed by the science and the law. We also handle the "boring but essential" stuff like GS1 barcode setup and approval. If you are looking to take your product to the world, we can even help you navigate the USA label requirements. We are here to give you the peace of mind that when your product hits the shelf, it is 100% compliant and ready for your customers to enjoy.
