a) for Orders placed between March and September, shipments shall be made on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays; Therefore, Orders confirmed between Thursday and Sunday shall be processed on the Monday of the following week. It should be noted that during said period between March and October, if deemed appropriate by EMILIA FOOD LOVE, the Products can be packed in special insulated containers with ice gel to limit any changes in temperature and preserve the organoleptic features of the Products.
b) for orders placed between November and February, shipments shall be made from Monday to Friday. It should be noted that during said period between October and February, if deemed appropriate by EMILIA FOOD LOVE, the Products can be packed in special containers with ice gel to protect them from bumps and temperature variations.
