Struggling With Food Label Compliance? Here’s What You Need to Know
Nikita Patel

Global food exports open new opportunities, but one wrong label can stop your shipment at the border. At Exim Shiksha, we simplify food label verification for exporters—helping you meet FDA/FSIS (USA), CFIA (Canada), FSANZ (Australia/NZ), EU FIC (Europe), and Gulf Standards (UAE, KSA, Qatar, etc.).

Why Do Food Labels Get Rejected?

Most rejections happen due to small but critical errors: missing allergen warnings, incorrect nutrition facts, wrong translations, or misleading health claims. Even font size and placement can cause customs officers to hold your goods.

Our Fix: We review every line of your label and match it with the destination country’s regulations—so you ship with confidence.

Do Different Countries Really Need Different Labels?

Yes! A single label rarely works everywhere. For example:

  • USA (FDA/FSIS): Specific format for Nutrition Facts.
  • Canada (CFIA): Mandatory English + French.
  • EU FIC: Allergen emphasis & standardized nutrition.
  • Gulf Standards: Dual language (English + Arabic) and date formats.

Our Fix: We customize your labels for each market, saving you from costly redesigns and reprints.

How Can Wrong Labels Impact My Business?

  • Shipment delays and detentions at ports
  • Financial loss due to re-labeling or product destruction
  • Damaged reputation with buyers and authorities

Our Fix: With proactive label validation, we ensure smooth customs clearance and zero surprises.

Is Label Verification Worth the Cost?

Absolutely. Think of it as insurance for your exports. A small investment upfront prevents massive losses later. Plus, compliant labels build trust with consumers in global markets.

Our Fix: Our team gives you mock-ups, corrections, and final approvals before you print, ensuring you’re market-ready.
