Wholesale Customers Terms and Conditions can be found below under the title - Wholesale Customers Terms and Conditions
These Terms and Conditions apply to all transactions on this site and are for internet customers. Please read them carefully. They do not affect your statutory rights.
We may change these terms and conditions at any time. Any changes will take effect on the date they are posted onto the site (see date above).
Our Contract
You will have an opportunity to check and correct any input errors in your order up until you click the Submit Order button.
After you submit an order we will give you an Order Reference Number and details of the products you have ordered. We will send the same details to you in a confirmation e-mail. Please note that this e-mail is an acknowledgement, not acceptance of your order.
When deciding whether or not to accept your order we may use certain information about you, including any received from credit reference agency checks with Experian Limited or other agencies. In particular, we may pass your details to Experian for them to check against certain public and private databases. Experian may keep a record to use in future security checks. This helps to protect you and us against fraudulent transactions.
We will tell you if your payment details cannot be authorised for any reason and may invite you to pay by another method.
Prices and Payment
All prices and charges on this site are in UK pounds. They include any VAT payable (most coffee products are currently excluded from UK VAT), but exclude delivery charges, if applicable unless Free Shipping is offered.
The total cost of your order will be the price of the products you order plus the applicable delivery charge (unless free shipping is offered). All these will be set out clearly in your Shopping Basket before you submit your order.
Prices, offers and products are subject to availability and may change before (but not after) we accept your order. If something becomes unavailable we may offer you an alternative.

IMPORTANT: We try very hard to ensure that all information on this site is accurate. However, occasionally, an error can occur. If we discover an error in the price or description of a product you have ordered, we may cancel your order at any time up to the point we send the product(s) to you.
