SOMERSAND — SHIPPING POLICY
Last updated: April 2026
1. Overview
At Somersand, we aim to deliver a smooth, transparent, and fair shipping experience.
Because our products are sourced, branded, and packaged with care, delivery takes a little longer — but we always keep you updated and involved.
This policy explains how shipping works from the moment you place an order to the moment it arrives at your door.
2. How Our Shipping Process Works
Every Somersand order goes through three stages:
Stage 1 — Supplier Processing
Once you place an order, we request your item from our trusted suppliers.
Timeframe:
5–7 Business days
(subject to supplier speed, customs, and flight schedules)
Stage 2 — Somersand Branding & Packaging (South Africa)
When your item arrives in SA, we:
Inspect it
Apply Somersand branding
Add premium packaging
Prepare it for courier delivery
Timeframe:
1–2 Business days
Stage 3 — Local Courier Delivery (Aramex )
Once branded and packed, your order is shipped to you using your chosen courier.
Aramex:
