Terms & Conditions
The rules that apply when you order from Authentic Lahori.
یہ صفحہ صرف انگریزی میں دستیاب ہے۔ قانونی شرائط اور کمپنی کی تفصیلات ہم صرف انگریزی میں رکھتے ہیں تاکہ کوئی ابہام نہ رہے۔ کسی بھی سوال کے لیے ہمیں info@authenticlahori.com پر لکھیں – ہم اردو میں جواب دے دیں گے۔
These terms apply when you buy from authenticlahori.com. Please read them – they are short, and written to be readable rather than impressive. Nothing in them takes away rights the law gives you as a consumer.
Who you are buying from
This store is operated by Authentic Lahori Foods LTD, a company registered in England and Wales under company number 17367849, registered office 15 Coldcotes Avenue, Leeds LS9 6NA, United Kingdom. In these terms "we", "us" and "our" mean Authentic Lahori Foods LTD, and "you" means the person placing the order.
Contact us any time at info@authenticlahori.com.
Who can order
You must be 18 or over and ordering as a consumer. These terms are written for consumers. If you are buying to resell or for a business, contact us first – different terms apply.
Our products
We sell culinary spice blends in sealed 250g pouches, available singly and in multi-pouch packs.
Ingredients, allergen information and the best-before date are shown on the product page and on the pouch itself. Please read the allergen information before ordering, and again before cooking. If you have a food allergy or intolerance and anything is unclear, email us before you buy and we will answer.
Product photography is representative. Spices are a natural product, so colour and aroma vary slightly between batches. That is normal and not a fault.
Prices and payment
All prices are in pounds sterling (GBP) and are shown in full on the product page. UK delivery is free on every order, so the price you see on the product page is the total you pay. There are no other charges.
Payment is taken through Shopify's checkout, which handles your card details securely. We never see or store your full card number.
Payment for preorders is taken in full at the time you order, before your goods are dispatched. We are telling you this plainly because it is unusual and because you should know it before you pay, not after. What you get in exchange is an unconditional right to cancel and get your money back at any time before dispatch, and for 14 days after delivery.
We try hard to keep prices accurate. If we spot a genuine pricing error on an order we have not yet dispatched, we will contact you before doing anything, and you can either confirm at the correct price or cancel for a full refund. We will not simply charge you more.
When your order becomes a contract
Adding items to your basket and paying is an offer to buy. The contract is formed when we send you an order confirmation email. If we cannot fulfil your order – for example if stock does not arrive – we will tell you and refund you in full.
Your right to cancel
You have a legal right to cancel a distance purchase within 14 days, under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013. The period ends 14 days after the day your goods are delivered, and it exists from the moment you place your order – which means on a preorder you can cancel at any time during the wait.
Alongside your legal cancellation rights, our first-pouch promise lets you actually cook with it. Open one pouch, make one dinner, and if you do not rate it, email info@authenticlahori.com within 14 days of delivery and we will refund what you paid for that pouch. Keep it – you do not have to send it back and there is no return postage to pay. We do not resell opened food, so we would rather it stayed in your kitchen than came back to ours. The promise covers one opened pouch per order. Any pouches still sealed can be returned within the statutory window for a full refund. This promise is something we give you on top of your legal rights, never instead of them.
To cancel or use the first-pouch promise, email info@authenticlahori.com with your order number. We will refund the amount due within 14 days of you telling us – normally much sooner, and always back to the card or account you paid from. If you are sending sealed goods back, you pay the return postage, and we would suggest a tracked service, because until it reaches us it is your parcel. The first-pouch promise never requires you to post anything.
This does not affect your rights if something is faulty, damaged or not as described.
Delivery
We deliver to United Kingdom addresses only, including Northern Ireland. We are not shipping internationally yet.
Our first production run has not been dispatched yet. Expected dispatch is October 2026. That is our honest estimate, not a guaranteed date – it depends on production and on stock reaching us. We are actively trying to bring it forward, and if we do, you get yours sooner. We will email you when your order ships, and if the date moves we will email you and tell you, before you have to ask.
By placing a preorder you are agreeing to this later dispatch date rather than the standard 30-day delivery period that would otherwise apply under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. If we miss the window, you can set us a new reasonable final deadline, and if we miss that you can cancel for a full refund.
Once we are shipping from stock, we dispatch within 1 to 3 working days of your order, not at weekends or on bank holidays. Delivery estimates are estimates.
Goods are your property, and your risk, once they are delivered to the address you gave us. Until your parcel is in your hands it is our problem, not yours – if it does not arrive, or arrives damaged, email us with your order number and we will chase, resend or refund. You do not need to contact the courier yourself.
Your legal rights
Under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 the goods we supply must be of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose and as described. If they are not, you are entitled to a refund, replacement or repair. Nothing in these terms limits those rights, and no term here should be read as trying to.
Things that are your responsibility
Please store the product as described on the pouch, use it before the best-before date, and check the ingredients if you have allergies. Spices are an ingredient, not a medicine – we make no health or medical claims about them and none should be read into our marketing.
Please also check your delivery address before you pay. If a parcel comes back to us because the address was wrong or incomplete, we will happily resend it, but we will have to ask you to cover the postage a second time.
Our liability
We do not exclude or limit our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, for defective products under the Consumer Protection Act 1987, or for anything else the law does not allow us to exclude – and that includes our core obligations under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
Beyond that, we are responsible for loss you suffer that is a foreseeable result of us breaking these terms, and we are not responsible for loss that is not foreseeable.
Your account and your data
You do not need an account to order. If you create one, keep your login details to yourself and tell us if you think someone else has them.
How we handle your personal information is set out in our privacy policy.
Marketing emails
If you sign up to our emails, including through any welcome-discount offer, you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every email. Discount codes are single-use per customer unless we say otherwise, cannot be combined with other offers, and we may withdraw an offer at any time – but never on an order you have already placed.
Things outside our control
We are not liable for delays caused by events beyond our reasonable control, such as extreme weather, courier strikes, customs delays or supply failures. If one happens, we will tell you and you can wait or cancel for a full refund.
Complaints
Email info@authenticlahori.com and we will reply within 2 working days and try to resolve it.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The version that applies to your order is the one published when you placed it, so a change never applies retrospectively to an order already made.
Law
These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and you can bring court proceedings in the courts of the UK nation you live in.
