It is difficult to answer this question as each product has a different best-before-date :-) You are welcome to call our colleagues of customer service (telephone: + 49 9433-20413300) and ask for the desired products. There they can tell you right away which best-before-date the respective articles currently have. Unfortunately, with respect to best-before dates we are dependent on the manufacturers and an early delivery and sadly we only have limited influence on this. For our fresh products we always pay close attention that their best-before-date is at least 10 days. Should this be not sufficient for you because you wish for an extra-long best-before-date, you can inform us about this during the order process (step 4. Field: Your message to us). We’ll then do our best to put articles with a longer best-before-date in your package.

Of course we offer a recycling program :-) You can dispose of the gelpacks in your household garbage or send them back at any time. Per Gelpack you will get 2 V-Points credited to your customer account. You can dispose of the insulating elements as a whole in the paper waste. Unfortunately, we can't cover the shipping costs, so it's a good idea to wait until some of the gelpacks have been collected.

Are there product ratings by other customers?

Each product can be rated by you and other customers. You find those ratings under the descriptions of the products each. There you can rate your favourites concerning taste, consistency, nutrition and the product description in our shop. This does not only help other customers but especially us to expand, evaluate and plan our assortment.

Please feel free to inform us about any product that you haven’t found yet in our online shop. We’ll pass your wish right on to our purchasing department. It may be possible that your desired product may soon be added to our product range.

Our product range consists of about 40% organic and/or fair trade products. Some products are not certified organic and/or fair trade because such a certification is very costly and expensive. Therefore, many manufacturers/suppliers go without such certifications even though their standard of raw material production is the same and would often meet the necessary criteria. However, in general we always make sure if and how our producers and suppliers grow/ harvest/ process their raw materials/products. We pay close attention that these are not purchased on the world market but that everything from purchase to farming is traceable and that it is ethically/morally and ecologically acceptable for us. Of course we are constantly working on offering an increasing number of our products also in organic and fair trade quality in the future!

Unfortunately, VEGGIE-SHOP24.COM has no influence on products of other manufacturers. However, in order to offer our customers high-quality products, preferably without palm oil, we are constantly in contact with our manufacturers. Many manufacturers though will continue to be dependent on this raw material, since it has certain unique qualities other oils do not have. At present, there is no raw material for the extraction of vegetable fats yet that is more environmentally friendly. But we can also tell you that palm oil used for food, especially for organic food from our suppliers, comes in most cases from certified plantations that do not contribute to the clearing of the rain forests. These sustainably managed plantations are farmed by contract farmers who do not cooperate with companies that promote the destruction of the tropical forests. Some companies even invest large sums every year in projects to support sustainable cultivation of palm trees and commit themselves to stop deforestation and slash-and-burn clearing of endangered forests and countries. Furthermore, companies of the vegan/vegetarian sector cannot directly be compared with multinational companies which have - deliberately and on their behalf - woods cleared to construct their plantations there. The good news is that generally rather small amounts of palm oil are used for food production. Most palm oil is used for fuel and heating fuel. Principally, palm oil is purely vegetable. Whether the processing of palm oil is compatible with the vegan lifestyle, everyone has to decide for themselves. But of course palm oil is vegan. In addition we certainly do always try to list and promote products from manufacturers which don’t use any palm oil at all. We also are in close contact with our suppliers trying to bring them to certificate their products and to use alternatives to palm oil. In order to facilitate your search in our shop for products without palm oil, we offer you the possibility to use our product and allergy filter. With this you can for example search for products containing no palm oil.
