Introducing CompliChef Solo Labels: Standalone Labelling Plan

CompliChef Launches Solo Labels: A Standalone Plan Built for Labelling

We know that not every hospitality business needs a full compliance platform right out of the gate. Sometimes, you simply need reliable, accurate food labels — and you need them now. That's exactly why we've built the CompliChef Solo Labels plan: a dedicated, standalone labelling solution designed to give you everything you need to produce professional, compliant food labels, without committing to a full CompliChef subscription.

Whether you're running a café, deli, school canteen, meal prep service, or small catering operation, Solo Labels gives you the tools to stay on the right side of UK food labelling law — simply and affordably.


What Is the Solo Labels Plan?

The Solo Labels plan is a new standalone tier from CompliChef, accessible directly at complichef.co.uk/solo-labels and via the CompliChef portal at portal.complichef.co.uk/solo-labels.php.

Unlike the full CompliChef platform — which includes HACCP tools, temperature logs, due diligence records, and more — Solo Labels focuses entirely on one critical task: getting your food labels right.

This makes it an ideal entry point for:


Why Food Labelling Matters More Than Ever

Since the introduction of Natasha's Law in October 2021, UK food businesses have been legally required to provide full ingredient and allergen information on all food prepacked for direct sale (PPDS). Getting this wrong isn't just a compliance headache — it carries serious public health implications and can result in significant legal consequences.

The 14 major allergens must be clearly emphasised within the ingredients list on every PPDS label. For businesses producing food in-house and selling it directly to customers — think sandwiches made in the morning and sold throughout the day — accurate, consistent labelling is non-negotiable.

Manually producing labels using word processors or spreadsheets is time-consuming, error-prone, and frankly not fit for purpose in a busy kitchen environment. The Solo Labels plan exists to change that.


Key Features of the Solo Labels Plan

Here's what you can expect from the CompliChef Solo Labels plan:

✅ Fast, Professional Label Creation

Generate clean, compliant food labels in minutes. Input your ingredients, and the system handles allergen highlighting and formatting automatically — no design skills required.

✅ Allergen Emphasis Built In

All 14 major allergens are automatically bold-highlighted within your ingredients list in line with UK labelling regulations, keeping you Natasha's Law compliant every time.

✅ Standalone Access — No Full Subscription Needed

You don't need to subscribe to the full CompliChef platform. Solo Labels is its own plan, available independently so you only pay for what you need.

✅ Cloud-Based and Accessible Anywhere

Access the label creation portal from any device with a browser. Whether you're in the kitchen, back office, or working remotely, your labels are always within reach.

✅ Reusable Label Templates

Save your recipes and label formats so you're not starting from scratch every time. Build a library of your most-used labels and update them quickly whenever a recipe changes.

✅ Print-Ready Output

Labels are formatted for straightforward printing, giving you a polished, professional result that reflects well on your business.


Who Is Solo Labels For?

The Solo Labels plan has been designed with real hospitality businesses in mind. It's particularly well-suited for:


How to Get Started

Getting set up with Solo Labels couldn't be simpler:

  1. Visit complichef.co.uk/solo-labels to find out more about the plan and pricing.
  2. Sign up or log in via the CompliChef portal.
  3. Add your recipes — input ingredients and the system automatically identifies and highlights allergens.
  4. Generate and print your compliant labels, ready to apply in your kitchen.

If you're already a CompliChef customer using the full platform, don't worry — your existing labelling tools remain exactly as they are. Solo Labels is a new standalone option for those who want focused labelling functionality on its own.


Staying Compliant Has Never Been More Accessible

At CompliChef, our mission has always been to make food safety and compliance straightforward for every hospitality business — regardless of size or budget. The launch of the Solo Labels plan is a direct response to the feedback we've received from smaller operators who told us they needed a focused, affordable labelling solution without the overhead of a full platform subscription.

We believe that every food business deserves access to the right tools, and Solo Labels is our commitment to making compliant labelling achievable for all.
