Delivery charges are calculated and added to your order after you have entered your delivery address. You will see the full charge before completing your purchase. Delivery charges are in New Zealand dollars and include GST, cover packaging, delivery and insurance.
We support delivery of all of our products anywhere in New Zealand; however some isolated regions may require additional delivery time. If this is the case for your area we will notify you of this prior to processing your order. We do not deliver outside New Zealand; however orders may still be placed from overseas with a New Zealand delivery address.
The anticipated dispatch time will be within 1-5 working days unless an item ordered is out of stock, bulky, or you have provided a rural delivery address. You will receive an email when your order is dispatched, this will include a track and trace number to enable you to follow your parcel.
The delivery company used is dependent on your delivery location and the size of the items ordered.
Dispatch and Delivery days are Monday to Friday, excluding public holidays. Thursdays 2pm cut-off on deliveries for perishable items (meat products, frozen goods).

- Check if your order has not been left with a neighbour or that someone has received the order on your behalf.
PRODUCTS ORDERED BY WEIGHT
Where items are ordered by weight, we will endeavour to provide you with an amount as close to the requested weight as possible. The actual amount you receive may exceed or be less than the amount requested. Please note that the price charged will be on the day of invoicing (either the day of or the day before delivery is due) and will be solely based on the actual weight of the item that you received and not the requested weight. Should the amount or the price of the delivered item be unacceptable you may return the item (or items) for a full refund. South African Pantry will not be liable for any redelivery or remedy from items returned due to weight or cost differences.
Should the weight on the delivery invoice differ from the actual weight of the product delivered, but the price charged is accurate, South African Pantry will not be liable for delivery of the weight amount as per the delivery invoice.
STOCK AVAILABILITY
Only items indicated as available on our Website can be purchased. Items stocked in store but not indicated as available on our Website, do not form part of our catalogue and therefore cannot be ordered. We will not deliver items not available on our Website even if they are requested through any special instruction available as part of the ordering process.
Due to the fact that we carefully choose your goods in store, we may occasionally run out of stock before we can update our stock availability on the Website. We endeavour to keep this to a minimum, but provide the facility for you to select ‘substitution’ options in the event that we are unable to fulfill your original request.

The delivery service may not be available in restricted areas From time to time, and with no prior warning, we will update the delivery coverage areas. We reserve the right to restrict deliveries in certain areas, including areas previously covered by our affiliate courier service.

- Dangerous delivery conditions that pose a health and safety risk for our courier company;
