Return & Exchange Policy
Returns ('Dry' Non-Perishable Goods only)
When you shop online you have the right to a “cooling-off” period of 14 calendar days in the EU (Consumer Contacts Regulations) and 30 days in the UK (Consumer Rights Act 2015) whereby you can withdraw from the contract and return your purchases to the seller. Perishable goods are not covered by these cooling-off periods, as they might not reasonably last as long as the stipulated 14-day or 30-day thresholds.
If you wish to return any 'Dry' non-perishable products, please notify us within 24 hours of receiving your delivery. Returns must be made at your own cost within 7 days of receiving your delivery. Please note that we can only accept the return of 'Dry' non-perishable products - we cannot accept returns of any fresh or frozen products. Returns must be received in their original condition.

When you shop online you have the right to cancel your purchase for a full refund until 14 days after it was delivered in the EU (Consumer Contacts Regulations) and up to 30 days in the UK (Consumer Rights Act 2015) whereby you can withdraw from the contract and return your purchases to the seller.
