For your convenience, we offer a number of slots in which we expect to deliver your order. At checkout, you may select your preferred slot and we will make every attempt to deliver within your selected delivery slot. In the event that there is a delay, you will be notified as much in advance as possible. Ultimately, the delivery slots are a guide and we are not bound to deliver within the stipulated slots. What we do guarantee is that your order will be delivered within 24 hours of the time of your selected delivery slot. That said, the majority of our customers’ orders are delivered within their chosen delivery slot and it is always our goal to achieve this. Beyond the delivery slot selected at checkout, we are unable to accept requests for deliveries at specific times.
While processing your order, we may need to contact you to discuss the availability of items in your order and any suggested replacements. We require your response within 15 minutes of receiving emails or phone calls about any replacements in your order, otherwise, we may deliver only the actual items ordered without including any suggested replacements. Once an order has been dispatched, other communication may be by phone call, so we require you to have your phone readily available.
We always endeavour to deliver your order directly to your doorstep, however if access to your location is limited due to a dilapidated road, flooding, road blocks, civil unrest or any other encumbrances, then we will require you to notify us in advance and also to meet the delivery driver at a convenient and more accessible location. Failure to notify us of any such issues may result in a delay and/or rescheduling of your delivery or a cancellation of your order.
Our delivery drivers are very happy to carry your order to your doorstep and even into your home, if you want them to. If your building has an elevator, the drivers will bring the order to any floor you’re on. If, however, the building has no elevator, the highest floor the drivers will walk up to is the 4th floor (assuming the ground floor is the 1st floor). Also, if your order contains large and/or heavy individual items such as water refill bottles, the driver will only walk up to the 2nd floor (assuming the ground floor is the 1st floor) if the building has no elevator.
In order to enable our delivery drivers effect timely deliveries, they are mandated to wait for a maximum of 5 minutes for each customer to receive their orders from them. After contacting a customer and the customer is either unresponsive or fails to show up after 5 minutes, the driver will leave your address. If you are unreachable at the point of delivery, your order may be rescheduled at an additional cost. We will accept no liability for perishable or other items that are damaged due to the wait time.
When we receive customer orders, we begin processing them immediately. And because we do not hold our own inventory and we only purchase from supermarkets and retail outlets when customers place orders, as soon as customers pay for their orders, we start purchasing their selected items from the supermarkets. The retailers we buy from have a no-return policy so, we in turn, are unable to return any items customers purchase from us to the retailers. Thus, once an order has been paid for, Grocenda is unable to accept a cancellation of the order, neither is Grocenda able to process a refund (either to the customer’s Grocenda wallet or their bank account). This, however, does not affect your rights to a refund in the event that an incorrect or damaged item is delivered.
If we deliver an incorrect or damaged item (damage that has been caused by us), we will happily replace the item at no additional cost to you. For us to replace such items, customers will need to notify the delivery driver of their observation at the point of delivery. Once customers have taken delivery of their order and signed confirming this, they take ownership of the items and Grocenda will be unable to accept any returns. For this reason, we ask customers to carefully check and confirm the accuracy of their order with the delivery driver before acknowledging receipt by signing. Grocenda will not accept returns for items that have no material damage to them. Products that are materially intact but whose packaging may have scratches, peels, tearing, dents, discolouration, rust, or any other aesthetic impairment that does not affect the taste, functionality or integrity of the actual product may not be accepted by Grocenda as a return.
If an item you ordered is unavailable, we will continue to check for
the item until it is back in stock. If, after our checks, the item
remains out of stock, any credit due to you will be added to your
Grocenda eWallet. We do not process refunds to bank accounts.
In instances where your address is not within our delivery coverage
locations or we later receive a payment which did not reflect in our
account at the time you made it, we may process a refund to your
account after deducting relevant bank charges.
Grocenda employees always strive to please customers and often go to extra lengths to ensure customers are fully satisfied with the service. We expect that our customers will accord the same courtesy and respect to all our employees they may engage with via email, over the phone or in person. Our employees mean a lot to us and without them, we will not be able to provide the level of service we offer our customers. So, while we will be patient with customers, we will not tolerate any written, verbal or physical abuse to our employees by anyone. Any breach of this by a customer may result in our refusal to fulfill the customer’s order. In such an instance, if the items in the customer’s order have already been picked and paid for, we may decide not to deliver to the customer’s location and instead require the customer to pick up the order at a location of our choosing. If, however, the items have not been purchased, we may process a refund after deducting relevant bank, transactional and operational charges and costs Grocenda may have incurred. Grocenda reserves the right to report any incidence of abuse to the appropriate law enforcement authorities.
