Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using our website at https://kleineakker.co.za (“the Site”) and/or placing an order through our Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions and all applicable laws and regulations.

Products and Fair Distribution Policy

As a small-scale producer committed to sustainable farming practices, Kleine Akker produces limited quantities of premium farm products with each harvest. To ensure fair distribution and give all our customers the opportunity to enjoy our products:

Purchase Limitation: We limit oil purchases to a maximum of 5 liters per customer per harvest season. This policy reflects our commitment to sharing our limited production fairly among our community of customers.

In seasons when our harvest yields excess stock beyond anticipated demand, we may notify our customers of the opportunity to place additional orders exceeding the standard purchase limitation. These special purchasing opportunities will be communicated directly to our customer base and will have their own terms and time limitations as specified in the notification.

In the interest of fairness to all customers, we reserve the right to:

  • Cancel orders that appear to circumvent this purchase limitation
  • Refuse service to customers who have repeatedly attempted to bypass these limitations

We thank you for your understanding and cooperation as we strive to serve our entire customer community equitably.
