Placing orders

We take a lot of pride in our customer service - we're here to help. If you have any questions, get in touch! Email us with the details on our contact page.

Orders can be placed by phone, email or online. As soon as the order has been processed, we will email a confirmation. Once payment has been received (or for business account clients, if the account is in terms), we will pick and dispatch the order. When the order has been dispatched, we will send an additional email with tracking information.

Benefits of using a distributor

We work with a network of distributors, throughout the US and worldwide, who are happy to help you select and order our range of plant-based catering disposables. 

Ordering through a Vegware distributor partner provides many environmental and economic benefits:

Efficient deliveries from Vegware to distributors: Rather than delivering a few cases, or a pallet, directly to sites, Vegware can send full 26-pallet truck loads into distribution hubs, maximising efficiency by reducing carbon and overheads.

Efficient deliveries from the distributor to you: Distributors have carefully planned fuel-efficient delivery routes, so adding in some cases of Vegware results in very little added cost, while being more carbon-efficient. It also allows you to consolidate your deliveries from the same distributor, so you can receive your Vegware along with other goods you’ve ordered from them, such as food or cleaning supplies

Local support: Distributors have a local presence which should mean exemplary service and an account manager on hand to help.

Contact our Customer Service team to find your local distributor: us.orders@vegware.com


Accounts

We are able to offer credit accounts to our business customers, subject to approval and agreed limits.

We will require information on your business, including registration details, billing, delivery, and statement addresses, and the name, email and phone number for our contact in accounts payable. Your application for a credit account will be subject to a credit check and all relevant details being received, and acceptance of our terms of trading.

Credit account customers will be provided with a unique account identifier with which they can log in and make purchases online. Alternatively, purchase orders can be made by phoning, emailing or faxing us directly. For every order we will continue to provide an email confirmation and dispatch note as per usual.
