I cancelled my order but did not get a refund yet?

In most cases, when order is cancelled, the payment has not been captured yet, meaning it has only been authorised and it’s in your pending transactions. Hence there is no need for a refund as the money will be automatically moved back to your account by your bank.
This may be instant or it may take up to a couple working days.

My order is missing some items!

Please check the total weight of the product, at times cuts may be bigger resulting in less pieces, but overall weight being as ordered.

Otherwise please contact us providing your order number and we will find the best possible resolution.

PACKAGING & STORAGE

Storage & Shelf Life after purchase

We aim to provide our customer with the best quality freshest product at the longest possible shelf life, within strict Food Safety guidelines.


Our target minimum shelf life for most cuts is 4 days, some products like poultry, sausages, burgers - usually 3 days*.

Use by date is stipulated on the label of each product and is determined by
both production and packing dates.
*Please note some products might be delivered with a shorter date, subject to availability or the nature of the product.

It is very important meat and temperature sensitive products are refrigerated immediately upon delivery, ideally at the bottom shelf of the fridge.

Due to the nature of next day delivery Rest of London & UK orders products may result in 1-day shorter shelf life upon delivery.

Although Rest of London & UK orders are packed insulated and with ice packs, immediate refrigeration is imperative, as the packaging will only guarantee the correct temperature for 24h (up to maximum 48h in colder weather conditions) from the order being dispatched, which is the day prior to delivery.

Packaging in-store and for delivery

Provenance is an eco-conscious company.
We've only used paper carrier bags in our shops, since we opened in 2013.
Additionally, we’ve had biodegradable polybags designed especially for festive orders in 2023, which you can still see being utilised across our London Local catchment area for cargo bike deliveries.

We've also worked hard to source sustainable packaging for our nationwide next day delivery service and researched the best insulated packaging to keep your order at optimal temperature on its journey.

We pack meat for delivery in either:
-     compostable air sealed trays*,
-   recyclable air sealed trays*,
-   compostable vacuum bags,
- recyclable vacuum bags,
-     or butchers’ paper at request

London Local orders are delivered inside recyclable paper bags, biodegradable polybags or recyclable carton boxes, depending on the size of the shipment.

Rest of London & UK orders are delivered inside recyclable cardboard boxes lined with biodegradable wool for insulation and reusable and recyclable ice
packs, made from nontoxic materials, to ensure your delivery arrives at a safe temperature.

Products for deliveries are mostly vacuum packed for additional longevity; some may be vacuum packed inside of the compostable/recyclable trays for protection (like burgers or skewers). Fragile items (bottles, jars, snacks) are protected with recyclable corrugated sleeves with some additionally vacuum packed.

*Please note the sealing film on the trays is not compostable to enable for freezing.
**On a rare occasion we might use non-compostable non-recyclable vacuum bags due to size restrictions of our compostable ones. These are unmarked.

If you have a preference regarding packaging of the cuts in your order, you can specify it in the Special Notes box under each product before adding it to Cart.

Packaging Type Disclaimer We reserve the right to use adequate, alternative packaging options, as necessary.

Freezing of our meat products

All meat products are suitable for freezing in original packaging for maximum of 3 months.
