LegaleGo Nutrition becomes an Amazon partner
After a year of hard work by our managers, the multinational company Amazon has given the go-ahead for LegaleGo Nutrition to offer food consulting services to its suppliers, which will further multiply our international presence by officially becoming an Amazon partner.
For several months, we have been advising all our customers to sell their food supplements through Amazon in several countries. In our blog, in fact, we wrote several articles on how to comply with Amazon’s requirements: Amazon warns about extended producer responsibility and requirements for selling food supplements in the UK.
It has been a few months of hard work and constant effort to get LegaleGo Nutrition to become an official Amazon partner. But like everything that is done with illusion, the LegaleGo Nutrition team we have achieved it and we are already official partners of the multinational, which allows us to provide legal coverage to all our customers and to all the suppliers that commercialize their products. foodstuffs through this marketplace.
In fact, we recently received a call from our first customer through Amazon: a Mexican company based in Belgium that wants to open its customer market to the United States, but needs advice on labeling, notifications and registrations.
But just like this Mexican company, we are daily adding other companies interested in the food consulting services that LegaleGo offers from its offices in Granada, Madrid, France, Germany and, soon, Italy.
This was one of Amazon’s main requirements to be able to ‘recommend’ LegaleGo Nutrition’s services. Based in Spain and serving other countries in the world such as the USA, France, Italy, Belgium, Portugal, Germany and the United Arab Emirates. But we also needed testimonials from at least five European Union clients to attest to our professional experience in the regulation and compliance of food supplements. And we succeeded.
In this way, we are the first and only company based in Spain certified by Amazon specializing in the regulatory compliance of food supplementswhich will be able to offer its services from now on to companies from any country in the world that already sell or sell their products to intend to market their products through Amazon.
To sell through Amazon, the first thing the company must do is to contact our highly specialized team and we will analyze in detail the products you want to sell according to the standards of each country where you want to put them on sale. Our services include the exhaustive review of the label (list of ingredients, dosage, health claims, mandatory food safety warnings…), translation into the official language of the country where each product is to be sold, adaptation of the label to the internal regulations of the country where it is to be marketed and the notification process of each food supplement in each country, to obtain the so-called “Pre-Market authorization” necessary to start selling.
We are currently active in the following markets: Spain, Ireland, France, Portugal, Belgium, Holland, Finland, Sweden, Austria, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, Hungary, United Kingdom, FDA, etc…etc. As we advise our customers, food supplements should be used in the following ways comply with European regulations and the internal regulations of each country where each product is to be marketed individually, but, in addition, it is necessary to follow a notification procedure of each product before the competent sanitary authority of the country where it is to be sold.
It is in this field that LegaleGo has specialized in order to offer our clients the best regulatory compliance advice not only in Spain, but in any country where our client is interested in selling its products.
And LegaleGo Food Consulting offers its customers the service of advice and regulatory compliance in each project to anticipate any requirement or health inspection that may be received from the administration in the future, carrying out the necessary audits, labeling reviews or controls in the notifications and certificates of each country, so that these brands only have to worry about selling their products to their international customers.
LegaleGo Food Consultancy is not only formed by lawyers, but in its offices work chemists and food technologists with specific training in food safety (registration, labeling, ingredients, claims, nutritional declarations, legal limitations and warnings…) according to the country where you want to make the marketing of each product.
In addition to our partnership with Amazon and the above, inspectors and health authorities are also part of our network of collaborators who help us to keep up to date with legislative changes.
