Please read these terms and conditions carefully before ordering any product from our site. By accessing our site and placing an order you agreed to be bound by these terms and conditions and our terms of use policy.

1. INFORMATION ABOUT US

Grocemania.co.uk is a website operated by Grocemania Limited ("we" or "us" or "Grocemania"), incorporated and registered in England, whose registered office is at "Kemp House 160, City Road London, EC1V 2NX". Our Company registration number is 9992207. Grocemania is a business where the groceries are provided by independent retailers (our "Partners" or "Partner Stores") and delivered by us.

 

2. PURPOSE

The purpose of our Service is to provide a simple and convenient service to you, linking you to the Partner Store and menu of their choice and allowing you to order groceries and household products from them. Grocemania markets groceries and household products on behalf of our Partner Stores, concludes orders on their behalf, and delivers the groceries and household products to you.

 

3. SERVICE AVAILABILITY

Grocemania offers an ordering and delivery service from our Partner Stores throughout Kingston and surrounding areas. Each Partner Store has a prescribed delivery area. This is to ensure that their groceries and household products reach your door when they are at their best. If you live outside the delivery areas, a message will appear on the screen notifying you that ordering online will not be possible. We do not accept orders from individuals to a postcode in which we do not have a Partner Store. Operating hours will vary depending on local trading conditions and the availability of our Partner Stores. Please click on the relevant link to view the menus on our Service, and then click on your chosen menu which will provide you with the option to submit your order.

 

4. ORDERS

When you place an order through our Service, an email thanking you for your order and confirming your order has been received and accepted by the Partner Store (the "Confirmation Email") will be sent to you by us on behalf of the Partner Store. The contract for the supply of any groceries and household products you order through us will be between you and the Partner Store and will only be formed when you have been sent the Confirmation Email to us. Please ensure that you have given us the correct email address as this is how we will communicate with you about your order. Please also ensure that you provide an accurate address and telephone number to ensure that your groceries and household products arrive at the correct location. If you do not open the door or respond to telephonic correspondence within 10 minutes of our delivery drivers physically reaching your address, we reserve the right to leave the premises, and you will be charged for the groceries and household products. Grocemania seeks to provide quality service and will be the first contact in the event there is a problem with your groceries and household products either in regards to food quality and/or temperature. We do monitor our Partner Store very closely and it is of utmost importance to us that they comply with our standards and help us to maintain our reputation. Please let us know if you have any comments relating to our Partner Store or in respect of the groceries and household products by emailing or calling us.

 

5. GROCERIES AND PRODUCTS

All groceries and household products are subject to availability. Your Partner Stores may offer an alternative for any groceries and household products it cannot provide you with. Please call our Partner Store before ordering if you have an allergy. Grocemania cannot guarantee that any of the products sold by our Partner Stores are free of allergens.

 

6. SALE OF ALCOHOL

Persons placing an order for alcohol from our Partner Stores must be aged 18 or over. Alcoholic beverages can only be sold and delivered to persons aged 18 or over. Grocemania operates the Challenge 25 age verification policy whereby customers who are lucky enough not to look 25 or over, will be asked to provide proof of age to show that they are aged 18 or over. By placing an order that includes alcohol, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old. Grocemania reserves the right to refuse to deliver any alcohol to any person who does not appear, or cannot prove they are, aged 18 or over. Grocemania also reserves the right to refuse to deliver any alcohol to any person who is, or appears to be, under the influence of either alcohol or drugs.

 

7. AVAILABILITY AND DELIVERY

We aim to provide the best delivery service possible. Unfortunately, things do not always go to plan and factors, such as traffic conditions and weather, may occasionally prevent us from achieving our targets in this regard. We will do our best to ensure that your groceries and household products are delivered by the time specified in the email and webpage. The timing of your order is determined by taking into account the number of orders and the circumstances being faced by the Partner Store at that time.

 

8. CANCELLATION

You have the right to cancel an order within a reasonable time and before the order becomes a Started Order. A Partner Store will classify a bad order as any order which is canceled after groceries and household products have been used to start preparing the order packaging (a "Started Order"). Customers can cancel an order by contacting the Partner Store. Grocemania and the Partner Store may cancel any order and will tell you once we cancel an order. You will not be charged for any orders canceled by this clause. Any payment made before an order being canceled by Grocemania or a Partner Store will usually be reimbursed using the same method you used to pay for your order and you will get your funds back in 1-3 business days. Any order canceled after it becomes a Started Order will be charged to you. Grocemania alone will determine whether an order is a Started Order or not.

 

9. PRICE AND PAYMENT

The price of any groceries and household products will be listed on our Service. Prices include VAT. Prices will vary between menus. All prices include 2.5 pounds delivery fee and some additional products might include a markup. Some product pictures might include price tags that are not relevant to our Partner Store's real price, therefore it has been made only for visual understanding of the product. Prices are liable to change at any time, but changes will not affect orders in respect of which you have been presented with the Confirmation Email, save in the case of an obvious pricing mistake, whereby we will notify you as soon as we can about the pricing issue. You may be able to cancel your order once we notify you. Despite our best efforts, some of the groceries and household products listed on our Service may be incorrectly priced. The relevant Partner Store will normally verify prices as part of the order process. Payment for all groceries and household products can be made by credit or debit card through our Service. Once your order has been confirmed your credit or debit card will have been authorized and the amount marked for payment. Payment is made directly to Grocemania and is subsequently passed on by Grocemania to the Partner Store. We are authorized by our Partner Store to accept payment on their behalf and payment of the price of any groceries and household products to us will discharge your obligations to pay such price to the Partner Store.
