Product Information & Disclaimer

Nicol Retailer Limited is committed to providing clear, accurate and reliable information about the food and grocery products available through our website. This policy explains how we present product information, how changes made by manufacturers and suppliers may affect product specifications, and the important considerations customers should make when purchasing, receiving, storing and consuming our products.

Last updated:  |  Nicol Retailer Limited


1. Product Descriptions and Supplier Information

Product descriptions, ingredients, specifications, weights, quantities, country-of-origin details, nutritional values, storage instructions and other information displayed on nicolretailer.com may be obtained from manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, product packaging and relevant product documentation.

We take reasonable steps to ensure that the information published on our website is accurate, clear and up to date.

Manufacturers and suppliers may occasionally change recipes, formulations, ingredients, packaging, pack sizes, sourcing arrangements or other product specifications.

These changes may occur without advance notification to Nicol Retailer Limited. Consequently, different packaging or product versions may temporarily be in circulation.

Where we become aware of a material inaccuracy, we will take appropriate steps to correct the relevant product information.

Customers should check the labelling on the actual product received and contact us if any material discrepancy is identified.

2. Product Images and Serving Suggestions

Photographs and illustrations displayed on our website are intended to assist customers in identifying products and understanding their general appearance.

Actual packaging, colours, presentation, labelling and product appearance may differ from the images shown.

Where photographs include prepared meals, garnishes, serving dishes, utensils or other accompanying items, these are provided for illustrative purposes unless expressly included in the product description.

Customers should consider the written product description, declared quantity and product specifications alongside the accompanying image.

Nothing in this section excludes our responsibility where goods supplied are materially different from their description.

3. Product Weights, Pack Sizes and Pricing

Products may be offered individually, by weight, by volume, in multipacks or in cases.

The applicable selling unit and pack quantity are identified within the relevant product listing.

Where supplementary unit pricing is displayed, values may be rounded where permitted by applicable law.

We endeavour to ensure that product prices, weights, quantities and descriptions are accurate.

The total amount payable, including applicable delivery charges, is presented during checkout before the customer submits an order.

Where a pricing or product-information error is identified, we will take appropriate steps to resolve the matter in accordance with applicable consumer protection legislation.

4. Ingredients, Allergens and Food Safety

Important Food Allergy Information

Customers with food allergies, intolerances, coeliac disease or other medically significant dietary requirements must carefully review the ingredient and allergen information available before purchasing a product.

Where allergen information is missing, unclear or inconsistent, please contact our customer service team before placing your order.

Nicol Retailer Limited aims to ensure that mandatory allergen information is made available before purchase and at delivery in accordance with applicable UK food information legislation.

Manufacturers may change ingredients, formulations, production processes or precautionary allergen statements.

Customers should always check the ingredient list and allergen declarations on the packaging of the product received before consumption.

Where unexpected ingredients or allergen warnings appear on the delivered product, do not consume the product and contact us promptly.

Statements such as “free from”, “may contain” or other allergen-related claims should be interpreted in the context of the specific manufacturer’s product information.

Products should not be assumed to be allergen-free merely because a particular allergen is not mentioned in a marketing description.

5. Nutritional and Specialist Dietary Information

Nutritional information displayed on our website may include energy values, fat, saturated fat, carbohydrates, sugars, protein, fibre, salt and serving-size information.

This information is generally obtained from manufacturers or suppliers and may change following product reformulation.

Where nutritional values are provided per 100g, per 100ml or per serving, customers should interpret these figures according to the stated basis.

Descriptions such as vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, halal, kosher or organic are based on available supporting product information.

Customers who require a specific certification or production standard should verify the relevant product details before purchasing.

6. Storage, Chilled and Frozen Products

Nicol Retailer Limited supplies ambient, chilled and frozen food and grocery products.

Customers must follow the storage temperatures, refrigeration, freezing, defrosting, preparation and cooking instructions provided for individual products.

Temperature-sensitive products should be transferred into appropriate storage conditions promptly after delivery.

Frozen products are available for UK delivery only.

Other chilled or temperature-sensitive products may be subject to additional delivery restrictions depending on the destination and available shipping service.

Cooking times and temperatures are generally supplied as guidance. Actual results may vary according to the cooking appliance used.

Customers should follow the instructions printed on the product packaging and observe appropriate food hygiene practices.

7. UK and International Delivery

Nicol Retailer Limited delivers eligible food and grocery products throughout the United Kingdom.

We also offer international delivery to supported destinations using DHL Express.

Delivery options, available international shipping services and applicable charges are displayed during checkout according to the destination country and products ordered.

Free UK Delivery

Free UK delivery is available for orders over £40, subject to the applicable delivery terms presented at checkout.

International deliveries may be subject to customs procedures, import regulations, food restrictions, duties and local taxes.

Responsibility for any applicable import charges will depend on the delivery terms communicated during the purchasing process.

Not all products are eligible for international delivery. Frozen products are restricted to UK destinations.

8. Product Availability and Website Information

All products displayed on our website are subject to availability.

Stock levels may change because of customer demand, supplier shortages, delivery delays or inventory updates.

If an ordered product becomes unavailable, we will contact the customer to explain the available options.

Where appropriate, a refund will be arranged in accordance with applicable law.

Although we endeavour to maintain reliable website functionality, occasional technical interruptions, maintenance or system errors may occur.

If you cannot access important product information, please contact our customer service team before completing your purchase.

9. Damaged, Incorrect or Potentially Unsafe Products

Customers should contact Nicol Retailer Limited promptly if a product arrives damaged, incorrectly supplied, materially different from its description or potentially unsafe.

Where practical, please retain the product packaging, batch number, lot information, best-before or use-by date and relevant photographs.

These details may assist us in investigating the matter with the relevant supplier, manufacturer or delivery carrier.

Do not consume food that you reasonably believe may be unsafe.

Reported concerns will be reviewed and appropriate remedies provided in accordance with applicable consumer protection legislation.

10. Consumer Rights and Liability

This policy explains the basis on which product information is presented on the Nicol Retailer website.

It should be read alongside our applicable terms and conditions of sale, delivery information and returns policy.

Nothing in this disclaimer excludes, limits or restricts a customer’s statutory consumer rights.

These rights include the requirements for goods to be of satisfactory quality, fit for their intended purpose and consistent with their description under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.

Nothing in this policy excludes liability where such exclusion would be unlawful, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

Certain cancellation rules for online purchases may differ for products that deteriorate or expire rapidly. These rules are separate from customers’ statutory rights concerning faulty, unsafe or misdescribed goods.
