No warranty is given that the goods comply with food and other relevantlegislation or do not infringe third party rights inother countries.
Inthe event of any fault occurring in any goods please notify us in writing andretain the goods for inspection.

7.None of our goods are offered on a Sale or Return basis and our representativesare not authorised to accept orders on a Sale or Returnbasis. It is thereforeyour responsibility to sell the goods prior to expiry of any ‘Best Before’date.
However, if goods are faulty or substandard at the point of delivery or do not tally with the proforma invoice sent to the customer, the Company operates a Returns Policy as follows-
If the customer is not entirely satisfied with their purchase or If the Company has sent products faulty or in error , the customer must ensure they go no further than opening the outer case in order to check the products inside.
Once checked and signed off by the buyer againstthe official proforma ,the Company would expect the buyer to be very clear about the products to be sent. However the Company allows- (a)10calendar days from receipt date to advise of the proposed return of an ambient item and (b) 3 calendar days fromreceipt date to advise of the proposed return of a chilled product. Frozen products are not eligible for return. Please also note that items bought onPromotion, Sale or Clearanceare also not eligible for return.
To be eligible for a return, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it.Your item must be in the original packaging. In order to qualify as a valid return the item needs also to be qualified by proof of purchase- usually a valid sales order or invoice number will suffice.
Refunds. Once the item has been received back, it will be inspected and assessed and the customer will be notified
3/4
that ithas been received. As soon as possible, the customer will then be notified concerning the status of your refund post-inspection.
If your return is approved, we will initiate a refund usually by Bacs or Faster payments or by raising a credit note against your account balance.You will aim to process any credit as soon as possible.
Returns Shipping & Return Shipping costs.In general, the customer will be responsible for paying your own shipping costs for returning your item- even if we undertake the arrangement to get the goods back ourselves on your behalf. Reimbursement of shipping costsare at the discretion of John & Pascalis Ltd and will be included as part of the refund after inspection, if so agreed by the Company .
