Refund policy
Return, Replacement & Refund Policy — Traditional Heritage
Thank you for shopping at Traditional Heritage. We take immense pride in crafting premium, authentic cookies baked with the finest ingredients. Because our products are perishable food items, health, hygiene, and food safety regulations mean our return and exchange guidelines differ from regular merchandise.
Please review our policy below regarding replacements, returns, and refunds.
1. Overview & Eligibility
Due to the consumable nature of bakery and food items, we cannot accept physical returns of opened, partially consumed, or unsealed cookies for hygiene and safety reasons.
However, customer satisfaction is our top priority. We gladly offer a free replacement or a full/partial refund under the following qualifying circumstances:
-
Damaged in Transit: Crushed packaging, damaged tins/boxes, or broken factory seals upon arrival.
-
Quality / Freshness Issues: Any noticeable quality defect, stale cookies, or batch-related concerns.
-
Incorrect or Missing Items: Receiving the wrong flavor, incorrect box size, or missing items from your parcel.
Reporting Window:
All replacement or refund requests must be reported within 48 hours of delivery. Claims submitted past this period cannot be entertained due to the shelf life and perishable nature of freshly baked cookies.
2. Retail Store Purchases vs. Online Orders
-
Online Purchases: Claims for damaged, incorrect, or defective items will be handled by our customer support team for free replacement delivery or refund.
-
Retail Store Purchases: Products bought directly from our physical/retail stockists can be exchanged within 7 days of purchase at the original store with a valid physical receipt/proof of purchase, provided the outer packaging and tamper-evident seal remain completely intact.
3. Proof of Claim & Verification
To process your replacement or refund quickly without requiring you to ship back perishable food:
-
Invoice / Order ID: Keep your order confirmation email, SMS, or physical packing slip ready.

Photo / Video Proof: Share clear pictures or a short video showing:
-
