General Questions

While we're mainly B2B, anyone can purchase for personal use

What is Volume Pricing?

Volume Pricing means the more you buy of an item, the less you pay per unit. We believe in rewarding larger orders with better valueโ€”automatically. Youโ€™ll see price breaks clearly listed on eligible products, so thereโ€™s no need to apply codes or contact us. Itโ€™s our way of supporting both small and large businesses fairly.

Can I collect from yourย fulfillmentย center?

No, sorry we are currently online only

Whatโ€™s the difference between a โ€œFull Boxโ€ and a โ€œPackโ€?

Some of our products come in large case quantities. To make ordering easier for smaller businesses, we offer two options:

  • Full Box: This is the original case as supplied by the manufacturer, typically offering the best price per unit.
  • Pack: A smaller quantity taken from a full box, ideal for testing a product or when you donโ€™t need the full amount.

Both options are clearly labeled on the product page, so you can choose what suits your needs bestโ€”whether you're buying in bulk or just topping up.

Ordering & Payments

How do I place an order?

All orders can be placed directly through our websiteโ€”quick and easy, 24/7. You donโ€™t need an account to order, but creating one helps you keep track of past purchases, manage your addresses, and speed up the checkout process for future orders.

Can I get a VAT invoice?

Yes, a full VAT invoice is automatically emailed to you after your order has been dispatched. Make sure to fill in your company details in your account profile.

If you didnโ€™t receive it or need a copy, just email us and weโ€™ll resend it promptly.

Can I set up a trade account or recurring order?

We donโ€™t require trade accounts to access our pricingโ€”everyone gets the same fair rates, big or small. However, if you place regular orders, we can work with you to streamline the process or set up recurring orders based on your needs. Just get in touch and weโ€™ll see how we can help.

Delivery

What are my delivery options
