Shipping & Delivery Policy Desi Achar Pickle
Hey, friend! First off thanks for stopping by at Al Zaiqa Foods.
I know how it feels when you’ve ordered something mouth-watering like achar or murabba and can’t wait to open that jar. So, let’s talk about how we get your favorite homemade pickles from our kitchen to your table fresh, fast, and full of flavor.
How We Ship Small Batches, Big Heart
At Al Zaiqa Foods, we don’t mass-produce. Nope.
Every jar of achar, murabba, or masala is hand-packed with love, made in small batches using pure desi ingredients no shortcuts, no factory vibes.
Once your order hits our system, we get to work. Within 1–2 business days, your parcel is ready to roll out.
And yes, we ship all over Pakistan Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Faisalabad, Multan… basically, wherever the craving hits you.
You’ll get a quick text or email once your package is dispatched, because honestly, we know that waiting in silence sucks.
Delivery Time
We try our best to deliver your order within 3–5 working days for major cities.
If you’re living in a more remote area, give us a bit more grace up to 7 days, tops.
Sometimes couriers take the scenic route (we feel your pain), but we promise it’s worth the wait.
Why? Because this isn’t just food.
It’s that “back-home” flavor, that jar that smells like Ammi’s kitchen.
And rushing that kind of perfection? Nah, not happening.
Shipping Charges
We believe in transparent pricing, no hidden stuff.
You’ll see your shipping fee right at checkout simple, clear, and fair.
And yes, we do Cash on Delivery (COD) in most areas.
No credit card? No problem. Pay when your jar shows up. Easy.
Oh, and good news we’re working on free shipping offers soon. You’ll be the first to know when it’s live (follow us on socials, yeah?).
Advance Payment Policy
We believe in keeping it fresh and fair. That’s why we ask for a 50% advance payment before dispatching your order.
It helps us prepare every jar fresh, without storing bulk or compromising on taste.
You can pay easily through:
EasyPaisa
JazzCash
Bank Transfer
Once your payment is confirmed, we’ll send you a confirmation message on WhatsApp or Email within 24 hours.
Why the Wait Sometimes?
Here’s the truth we use fresh seasonal produce, not frozen, not artificial.
So when mango season ends, or lemons go scarce, things can slow down a bit.
But we’d rather be slow and deliciously authentic than fast and flavorless.
Sometimes the courier gods mess up. Sometimes the weather does.
But one thing’s for sure we never compromise on quality.
You’ll always get a jar that’s been packed with care, sealed with flavor, and shipped with love.
Damaged or Leaking Jar?
We hate when that happens really.
If your order shows up broken or leaking, don’t panic. Just snap a quick photo and send it to us within 24 hours.
We’ll replace it or refund you no drama, no runaround.
We can’t take back opened jars (food safety, you get it), but we’ll always try to make things right.
Our Promise
At Al Zaiqa Foods, we’re not just selling achar — we’re sharing a piece of our home.
Every jar carries a story the warmth of the sun on drying mangoes, the aroma of roasted masalas, the love that turns ordinary into unforgettable.
So yeah, your order might take a few days.
But when you twist open that lid, and that authentic desi aroma hits you you’ll know it was worth every second.
You’re not just a customer to us. You’re part of the Al Zaiqa family now.
And families? They take care of each other one spicy, tangy, homemade bite at a time.
