At Caribbean Eat, we are committed to preparing and delivering your orders with care, efficiency, and transparency. Please read the following policy to understand how our shipping process works.
All orders are processed within 1–3 business days (excluding weekends and holidays).
⚠️ IMPORTANT:
ORDER PROCESSING TIME MUST BE RESPECTED BEFORE SHIPPING BEGINS.
• Orders placed on Friday (after business hours), Saturday, Sunday, or holidays will begin processing on the next business day.
• Processing time refers to order preparation, packing, and fulfillment, NOT shipping transit time.
While we always aim to ship orders as quickly as possible, during high order volume or peak seasons, orders may be shipped closer to the third business day.
Shipping rates are not set by Caribbean Eat.
They are automatically calculated at checkout based on:
• Destination
• Package weight & dimensions
• Selected shipping method
• Carrier rates (UPS, USPS, FedEx, etc.)
📌 The customer pays exactly what the carrier system calculates in real time.
Delivery times shown at checkout represent estimated transit time provided by the carrier, NOT total delivery time.
These estimates:
• Apply to business days only (Monday–Friday)
• Do NOT include weekends or holidays
• Begin ONLY after the carrier has picked up the package
If you select:
Standard / Ground Shipping (UPS Ground, Ground Saver, USPS Ground, etc.)
• Your package is handled as a standard shipment
• Delivery time is estimated only and not guaranteed
Expedited Services (UPS 3 Day Select, 2nd Day Air, Next Day Air, etc.)
• These services prioritize faster transit
• However, processing time (1–3 business days) still applies before shipment
Orders containing perishable items (including produce and salted fish):
• Are shipped ONLY on Mondays and Tuesdays
• This ensures products arrive in optimal condition and avoid weekend delays
📌 Example:
If you place an order on Wednesday with perishable items → it will ship the following Monday or Tuesday.
We appreciate your patience — this is done to protect product quality.
Your order may be delayed under the following circumstances:
• Order will be placed on hold
• We will contact you for clarification
• Processing resumes once corrected
• An item may be temporarily unavailable or close to expiration
