Trade FAQ’s

I’ve got trade access, how do I place an order?

Simple. All orders can be placed online, once you have been set-up with trade access, simply login and trade prices will be automatically displayed.

How long will my trade order take to arrive?

Our shipping time is between 3-5 days, but can be as quick as 1-2 days depending on how busy we are. However, given current lead times, we always recommend placing your order with as much notice as possible to avoid disappointment.

Our nominated courier is DPD, and we send all trade orders on a Tracked Next Day service, tracking numbers are emailed on day of dispatch.

What’s the minimum trade order?

Any UK mainland trade order placed over £150 will receive Free Shipping. For EU & worldwide orders we ship using either DPD or UPS and charge this at cost.

Our minimum trade export is £250 plus shipping charged at cost. 

* Please note: As a result of Brexit shipping from the UK to EU member states will now require Vat to be paid by the receiver. In some cases duty is being charged, although the terms of the Brexit agreement allows for tariff free movement between UK/EU/UK Before placing any EU orders please ensure you understand your potential import costs as they vary by country

Do you offer free samples?

For existing trade customer we offer free samples. For new enquiries, we do not offer free samples. We suggest ordering small consumer bottles (only £6.95) to play around with your recipe and dilution rate. Then, when you are ready to place a trade order, we will be happy to refund the original purchase of the flavour(s) you order in trade sizes.

How does trade discount work?

Once a trade account has been set up, discounts are applied depending on the size of the order. Larger quantities can take advantage of larger trade discount, for example:

(Tiered Discount Example) Natural Vanilla Essence

Non Trade: £90 per litre

Trade: £55 for one litre (saving 40%). Five litres is £185, saving 60%.

So, the more litres you buy, the bigger the discount!

Can I get Credit Terms?

Yes on request subject to approval. Our only requirement is that you are a VAT registered business and/or have submitted at least 1 set of accounts to companies house. We are also happy to extend credit terms to any of our current loyal customers with at least 12 months active trading history.

What happens if I am a new company with No Trading History?

That’s not a problem, we will still be delighted to trade with you. All we ask is that you pay the first few orders pro forma (ie online at time of purchase) and once we have established a regular trading pattern we will be happy to look at credit terms.
