All products are shipped in insulated cooler boxes packed with food-grade dry ice. Internal temperature is maintained at or below −18°C throughout transit. On arrival, products must be transferred to your freezer immediately.

An authorised representative from the receiving establishment must be present to accept and sign for the delivery. The signatory should verify:

• Number of trays delivered matches the invoice.
• External packaging is undamaged.
• Products are still frozen.

5. Returns & refunds

Due to the perishable nature of our products, returns are accepted only in the following circumstances:

• Damaged or thawed on arrival: Report within 24 hours of delivery, with photos. We will replace or refund at our discretion.
• Quality defect: Report within 72 hours of delivery with photo and batch number. After verification, we'll replace the affected units or credit your account.
• Wrong SKU shipped: Report within 24 hours; we will dispatch the correct SKU and arrange collection of the incorrect one.

We do not accept returns for change-of-mind, over-ordering, or products that have been opened, partially thawed, or used.

6. Refund processing

Approved refunds are processed within 7 working days to the original payment method. For credit-account customers, refunds are issued as account credit unless a bank transfer is specifically requested.

7. Cancellations
