Refund & Exchange Policy

Last Updated: July 2026

Thank you for shopping with us. Because we deal with fresh, perishable food products, we maintain strict policy guidelines to ensure food safety and quality control. Please read our policy carefully before placing an order.

1. Order Cancellations & Refunds

  • Before Processing: You are eligible for a full refund only if your order has not yet been processed, before any meat has been cut, diced, or packaged.
  • After Processing: Once our team begins preparing or cutting your order, we cannot offer any cancellations, changes, or refunds.

2. Fresh Meat: Claims & Reporting Windows

Because fresh meat is highly perishable, any issues or defects must be reported to us immediately within the following timeframes:

  • Collection (Standard): Must be reported within 2 hours of pickup.
  • Collection (Summer Months): Must be reported within 1 hour of pickup due to warm weather transit risks.
  • Home Delivery: Must be reported within 1 hour of the delivery time slot.

3. Approved Product Exchanges

If you report a defective item within the time limits and it is approved by our team, we will issue an exchange based on the product weight:

  • Fresh Meat & General Items: We will offer an exchange matching the available weight of the product returned.
  • Frozen Fish: We will offer an exchange matching the remaining weight of the frozen fish returned.

4. Refund Payment Methods

Once a refund is approved, it will be issued based on your original payment method:

  • Card & Online Payments: Will be securely refunded back to your original card or bank account through our payment processor, Stripe. Processing times are subject to Stripe's standard terms and conditions.
  • Cash Payments: For orders originally paid for in cash, your refund can be collected in cash directly from our store.
