PRODUCT FRESHNESS

We hold the highest quality standards of freshness and quality. To ensure that you receive all your products in optimal condition we carefully pack them in an insulated Styrofoam box with dry ice and/or reusable ice gel packs. This packaging is designed to maintain full product freshness while in transit. Our stringent packing methods and temperature control packaging allows us to guarantee that our products will remain fresh and in their original condition when they are delivered to your door. Please be available to receive your shipment so that you can inspect it and refrigerate or freeze perishable items as soon as possible.

SHIPPING & PROCESSING TIMES

Most orders will ship the same day when placed before 2:00 pm ET. Any order including a "cut to order" product will have a 1-3 day processing time. Orders containing perishable food items only ship Monday through Thursday, unless you select the Saturday Shipping option during checkout and the order will then ship on Friday. The 2:00 pm same day shipping cut-off time may change during the November and December holidays. Please note that delays may occur during transit due to weather conditions, product availability, national holidays, and other factors. No orders ship on Saturday, Sunday or on national holidays. At this time we are unable to offer delivery to P.O. boxes, or APO/FPO addresses.
