Where we deliver

We deliver to England and Wales only. We don't currently deliver to Scotland, Northern Ireland, the Channel Islands, the Isle of Man, BFPO addresses or outside the UK. If your address isn't covered, checkout will tell you before you pay.

UK delivery (DPD)

  • Orders under £50: £4.99 tracked delivery with DPD.

Please allow 1–5 working days for your order to arrive. We'll email you when it has been dispatched, with your DPD tracking link.

Local delivery from Ebbsfleet (DA10)

We deliver ourselves to addresses near our base in Ebbsfleet, Kent. Checkout shows this option automatically if your address qualifies.

Local deliveries run Tuesday to Saturday, excluding bank holidays. We'll message you to arrange a delivery slot and let you know when your order is on its way.

If nobody is in when we arrive, we'll call you to arrange another time. A £3 re-delivery charge applies.

Rice, atta and other large bags are available for local delivery and collection only. They're marked on the product page.

Leaving your order with someone else

If you ask us to leave your order with a neighbour or friend, or in a safe place you choose, our driver will check that your items are left undamaged. Once they have been left as you asked, you're responsible for them. This includes any leaks or damage to rice and atta bags after our driver has left.

FREE collection

You can collect your order free of charge from Ebbsfleet (DA10). Choose Pickup at checkout and we'll email you when it's ready.

Please collect within 2 working days of that email (Saturday counts as a working day), or call us to arrange another time. If an order isn't collected and we haven't heard from you, we may cancel it and refund you, less a £3 handling charge.
