Return & Refund Policy
Important guidelines for all wholesale orders
Wholesale Supply Notice
YorubaFoods operates as a bulk wholesale distribution warehouse.
Returns on wholesale orders are managed under controlled conditions and subject to the terms below. All customers must inspect goods at the point of delivery or collection.
Standard Returns
Customers have 14 days from the date of delivery to return any unused, non-perishable items in their original packaging for a full refund.
Items must be in their original condition with all tags and packaging intact to qualify for a return.
Damaged or Perishable Goods
Any delivery discrepancies or issues with fresh items must be reported within 48 hours of delivery with photographic evidence.
Failure to report issues within this timeframe may result in the claim being declined.
Photographic evidence is required for all claims related to damaged or perishable goods.
Inspection & Reporting
Customers are required to check:
- Quantity
- Packaging condition
- Product condition
- Visible damage
Any discrepancies must be reported immediately at delivery or within 48 hours of collection.
Claims submitted outside this timeframe may not be accepted. Photographic evidence may be required.
Non-Returnable Items
The following items are non-returnable unless confirmed faulty at dispatch:
- Opened or used items (unless faulty)
- Items missing original packaging or tags
- Products stored or handled incorrectly after receipt
- Special-order or custom items
- Personal care and hygiene items once opened
For hygiene and safety reasons, certain categories (e.g. opened beauty or personal care products) cannot be returned once received.
Damaged or Incorrect Goods
Where goods are confirmed to be damaged prior to dispatch, incorrectly supplied, or faulty upon receipt, YorubaFoods will offer one of the following remedies:
- Product replacement (subject to availability)
- Credit note for future orders
- Partial or full refund where applicable
Refunds are issued at our discretion where replacement or credit is not feasible, in line with applicable consumer protection law.
Order Errors & Change of Mind
Confirmed and paid orders cannot be returned due to accidental over-ordering of custom stock or items damaged post-delivery by the customer.
Customers are responsible for verifying order quantities before payment is made.
Storage & Handling Responsibility
Once goods are signed for or collected, responsibility transfers to the customer. YorubaFoods is not liable for:
- Improper storage
- Mishandling after receipt
- Resale losses
- Third-party handling issues
