Return Window

• Non-Perishable Grocery & Kitchenware: You may return these items within 30 days of the delivery date. To qualify, merchandise must be unused, unopened, and in its original resalable condition, with all original tags attached and the original packaging fully intact.
• Perishable Items: For reasons of food safety, quality assurance, and public health regulation, perishable goods — including fresh produce, dairy, frozen items, prepared foods, and short-shelf-life products — cannot be physically returned. If a perishable item reaches you damaged, spoiled, expired, or otherwise compromised in transit, you qualify for an immediate full refund or a free replacement (clear photo evidence required within 48 hours of delivery).

How to Initiate a Return

2. Receive RMA & Instructions: Our team will review your request and issue a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number together with return shipping instructions within 1 business day.
3. Pack Securely: Carefully pack the item(s) in protective packaging. Write your RMA number plainly on the outside of the shipping box (never write directly on the original product packaging).

Note: Returns shipped without a valid, pre-approved RMA number may face significant processing delays or be refused upon arrival.
