Transportation Options for Perishable and Non-Perishable Items

During the summer months, we take extra measures to ensure the freshness and quality of our groceries. High temperatures can pose challenges for certain perishable items, which is why we offer specific transportation options to mitigate any potential issues.

If your cart includes a mix of perishable and non-perishable items, we provide the following choices:

1. Ground+Air: This option involves transporting non-perishable items by land and perishable items by air. By utilizing land transport for non-perishables, we can offer cost-effective rates and ensure timely delivery. On the other hand, perishable items are shipped via air to maintain their freshness and quality. This two-tiered approach guarantees that all your products arrive in optimal condition, even during the summer heat.

2. Air Only: For the utmost speed and efficiency, you can opt for the Air Only option for your entire order. Whether your items are perishable or non-perishable, everything will be shipped by air. While this option may come with additional charges due to higher air transport costs, it ensures that all your products are delivered promptly, irrespective of their nature.

These transportation options are specifically designed to safeguard the integrity of our groceries, particularly during the summer months when certain foods can deteriorate under the heat. Our dedicated logistics team takes every precaution to ensure that your perishable items remain fresh and that your overall shopping experience is exceptional.

When finalizing your purchase, please review your cart and select the transportation option that best suits your needs.

Should you have any further inquiries or require assistance in making your decision, our customer service team is here to help. We value your trust in our services and strive to provide you with the highest quality products and timely deliveries, even in challenging conditions.

Your pack shipment

Depending on the shipping option, and the location of the shipping address, packages are generally dispatched within 2 days after the reception of the payment and are shipped via UPS with tracking and drop-off without signature. If you prefer delivery by UPS Extra with required signature, an additional cost will be applied, so, please contact us before choosing this method. Whichever shipment choice you make, once your package has been shipped, we will provide you with a link to track your package online.

Shipping fees include handling and packing fees as well as postage costs. Handling fees are fixed, whereas transport fees vary according to the total weight of the shipment, and the location of the delivery address.
