Terms and Conditions of Sale These terms and conditions (the "Terms") apply to any purchase made by you in accordance with a Purchase Order (as defined below) for goods. When placing a Purchase Order, please ensure you have read the Terms carefully as they set out important information about your and our rights and obligations. By placing a Purchase Order you are deemed to have read and be bound by these Terms.

 

1 Interpretation

1.1 In these Terms reference to: "Company" means Caribbean Goods Ltd, a company registered in Scotland with (Company Number SC616814), whose registered office is at Strathclyde Inspire Hub Rooms 6.01-6.13, Level 6 Graham Hills Building, 50 Richmond Street, Glasgow, Scotland G1 1XN, and its successors and assignees; "Contract" means and includes these Terms along with any Purchase Order, whether in writing or not, between the Company and the Purchaser for the supply of goods; “Intellectual Property Rights” means any copyright, patents, know-how, trade secrets, trade marks, trade names, design rights, rights in get-up, rights in goodwill, domain names and all other intellectual property rights and similar rights in each case whether registered or unregistered and including all applications (or rights to apply) for, and renewals or extensions of, such rights and all similar or equivalent rights or forms of protection which subsist or will subsist now or in the future in any part of the world; "Purchase Order" means an order from the Purchaser to the Company for the goods, made in accordance with these Terms. For the avoidance of doubt, this Purchase Order may take, but is not limited to, the following formats; a document stating the order, an email containing the order, an order submitted through our Whatsapp account, Instagram account (@caribbeangoods) or website (https://www.caribbeangoods.co.uk) or a verbal order which we subsequently confirm with the Purchaser by email; and "Purchaser" means the person, firm, corporation or other legal entity to whom the Company has agreed to supply goods in accordance with the Purchase Order.

 

1.2 Unless otherwise agreed by a director of the Company all offers are accepted and all goods sold are subject to and in accordance with these Terms.

 

1.3 All orders for goods shall be deemed to be an offer by the Purchaser to purchase goods subject to these Terms.

 

1.4 The Company does not contract on Purchaser's terms and conditions. Any acceptance or counter offer by a Purchaser will be in accordance with the Company's terms and to the exclusion of all other terms and conditions including any such terms and conditions which the Purchaser may purport to apply under any Purchase Order, confirmation of order or similar document, whether signed or acknowledged by the Company or not.

 

1.5 No variation of a Contract shall be effective unless it is in writing, refers expressly to these Terms and is signed by a statutory director of the Company.

 

2 Terms of Supply

2.1 The Company undertakes to use all reasonable endeavours to supply the goods to the Purchaser as agreed in any agreed Purchase Order, subject to and in accordance with these Terms, and the Purchaser agrees to pay the price.

 

2.2 The Company will supply the Purchaser with the goods provided the Company has the availability to do so and the Company reserves the right to reject any Purchase Order at its discretion.

 

2.3 The Company will arrange the delivery of goods and charge for these appropriately as set out in the Purchase Order.

 

2.4 If a Purchase Order is accepted by the Company, the Company will aim to deliver the goods to the address provided by the Purchaser in the Purchase Order and in accordance with the time specified in the Purchase Order. If no acknowledgement of a Purchase Order is issued, these Terms are deemed to have been accepted at the time the goods are delivered to the Purchaser. A Purchase Order is not binding on the Company unless an acknowledgement is issued or the goods are delivered to the Purchaser.

 

3 Prices

3.1 The Company will provide the Purchaser with a quote for the goods selected for purchase. The Company reserves the right to adjust such quoted prices to take account of additions to, or increases in, the cost of labour, materials, services, transport and ancillary charges occurring between the date of the quotation and the date of delivery of the goods. The Purchaser will be notified of any such changes and if it does not reject such changes in writing within 3 working days it shall be deemed to have accepted them.

 

3.2 Unless otherwise stated, all prices quoted are exclusive of VAT and any other applicable tax, duty or imposition. Any such tax or duty shall be added to the price and shall be payable by the Purchaser to the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, any tax, duty or levy occurring after acceptance of a quoted Purchase Order by the Company but before delivery and/or invoicing will be for the account of the Purchaser.

 

3.3 The Purchaser shall pay in advance or if the option to purchase on credit has previously been agreed with the Company in accordance with the payment provisions agreed with and confirmed expressly in writing by the Company for the relevant Purchase Order or otherwise within 7 days of the earlier of receipt of the relevant goods or the relevant invoice.

 

3.4 The Company may offer the Purchaser credit terms, and any extension of credit to the Purchaser may be changed or withdrawn at any time by the Company.

 

3.5 Should the Purchaser fail to make payment of the price or undisputed invoice on or before the due date of any sum due in accordance with condition 3.3: 3.5.1 interest on the amount unpaid shall accrue from the date such amount was due until the date of payment at the rate of the higher of 1.5% per month or part thereof or 8% per annum above the base rate from time to time of the Bank of England, such interest to be calculated daily; and 3.5.2 without prejudice to the Company's right to be paid interest, the Company may suspend the delivery of the goods under a relevant Purchase Order, until payment in full of such outstanding sums are received. 3.5.3 the Purchaser agrees that they will cover all costs incurred by the Company in recovering sums owed by the Purchaser including any fees charged by a debt recovery agency working on behalf of the Company.

 

3.6 The Purchaser shall not be entitled to withhold any payment of the whole or any part of an invoice which is properly due on the ground that it has any dispute over the remainder of the same or any other invoice, or has an alleged claim, counterclaim or set-off against the Company.

 

3.7 Notwithstanding anything in these Terms expressed or implied to the contrary, in the event of the Purchaser ceasing to take supplies from the Company (for whatever reason) or the Company ceasing to deliver supplies to the Purchaser (for whatever reason) then all sums invoiced shall fall due for immediate payment.

 

4 Delivery

4.1 Subject to these Terms, acceptance of goods by the Purchaser shall be deemed to take place on delivery to the address stated on the Purchase Order, or the premises of a party as directed by the Purchaser or when the goods are collected by the Purchaser or their agent, unless the Company is notified of any issue within one working day of such delivery.

 

4.2 For each Purchase Order, delivery of the goods shall be arranged with a third party carrier. Even if the Company arranges the carrier the Goods are at the Purchaser’s risk from delivery to the carrier and so in the event that the goods are damaged or lost in transit, any claims which are not met by the carrier, shall not be the responsibility of the Company. The Purchaser shall remain liable for any outstanding costs and these must be paid before redelivery is made by the Company.

 

4.3 Time of delivery is not of the essence and any delivery date advised by the Company on the relevant Purchase Order is an estimated date only and the Company shall not be liable for loss or damage attributable to any failure to meet such date.

 

4.4 Unless otherwise specified and agreed any Contract for delivery over a period of time will assume call off of deliveries in equal quantities per month of the Contract period.

 

5 Claims For Loss, Damage and Shortage

6.5 Unless the Company advises in its discretion otherwise, the Purchaser's right to possession of the goods to which title has not passed shall terminate immediately if the Company is entitled to terminate the Contract.

 

6.6 The Company shall be entitled to recover payment for the goods notwithstanding that ownership of any goods has not passed from the Company.
