The Seller represents and warrants that the information and documents made available to Euroarll Sales during the registration process are timely, accurate and complete.
The Seller will subsequently send to Euroarll Sales a storage order instructing it to initiate the e-fulfillment services for itself and stating the codes and designation of the Products subject to the storage order, the quantity, date, address, and delivery schedule, as well as any other additional requests/information required by Euroarll Sales to fulfill the purpose of the Agreement (“Storage Order”).

1.2. Within 48 (forty-eight) working hours following the issuance of the Storage Order, Euroarll Sales undertakes to confirm (either in writing via e-mail or the Euroarll Sales Online Platform) the Product storage and take-over order and the place (county, locality, address) where the Products will be stored. Any Storage Order not containing the information in the previous paragraph will not be confirmed within the set time limit and may be refused or partially accepted by Euroarll Sales. Thus, the reception must be communicated and announced in advance by the Client within a minimum of 2 (two) working days.

1.3. The Seller undertakes to deliver the Products related to every Storage Order within the time limit and in the quantities confirmed by Euroarll Sales, according to the accepted Storage Order, at the storage facility communicated by Euroarll Sales in the notice of receipt of the order or in the response automatically generated by the Euroarll Sales online Platform.

1.4. The Parties undertake to fulfil and understand to be responsible for the fulfilment of the following obligations regarding the storage, handling, taking over and delivery of the Products to the end customers and the processing of returns from the end customers as follows:

Euroarll Sales with this undertakes:
a) to process on behalf of the Seller Orders for its Products
b) to store Seller’s Products under the terms and conditions outlined in this Agreement
c) to process Seller’s Orders through its own cloud-based systems for order management, registration, processing, reporting and tracking.
d) to start taking orders placed by the end customer and prepare the parcels for delivery within 48 (forty-eight) working hours following the takeover of Seller’s goods, the Seller understanding that much time is required for the acceptance and shelf placement of the Products. Euroarll Sales accepts this time limit for orders of up to 800 products only (50 SKU maximum), always provided that the Products have, at the time of the takeover, labels showing the specific codes previously communicated in the Storage Order. The parties agree that the operation whereby Euroarll Sales cannot perform a standard takeover of Seller’s Products due to the absence of the barcodes required by the Seller (or any other type of code required by Euroarll Sales) or in case of additional quantities sent by Euroarll Sales shall be considered stocktaking (and therefore charged at a rate of 10 euro cents per piece of product).
e) to take the Orders and issue the invoice on behalf of the Seller (should the Seller choose so), to carry out the pick and pack operations, to issue air waybills (transport documents) and prepare the Products for the picking of the parcel/parcels by the courier service to have them delivered to the end customers. For Euroarll Sales to perform the invoicing service on behalf of the Seller, the latter will authorise Euroarll Sales and provide it with all the mandatory information specified in the national legislation regarding the invoicing process.
f) to allow the Seller access to its cloud-based reporting system using the username and password received upon conclusion of the Fulfillment Services Agreement, which shall enable the Seller to view the number of Orders and the stock. Stocks are updated every 24 hours at the minimum.
g) depending on the monthly volume of Orders taken and fulfilled by Euroarll Sales, the latter will calculate and invoice to the Seller the price of the e-fulfillment services according to the Pricelist in Schedule 1 to the Fulfillment Services Agreement signed by the parties, of which these General Terms and Conditions form an integral part.
h) to operate between 09:00 AM and 05:00 pm, from Monday to Friday, during regular working days. Euroarll Sales shall prepare for the delivery of Seller’s online orders registered on working days until 1 PM before the end of the day. This term is assumed by Euroarll Sales only if two conditions are cumulatively fulfilled: orders must be automatically taken (plugin or API integration) from the cloud-based reporting system made available to the Seller by Euroarll Sales, and only if Euroarll Sales ensures the transport of these Products to the final customer. Orders placed on Saturdays, Sundays, and on bank or public holidays will be processed and handed over to the courier until the end of the first working day following the non-working day. These terms apply to standard online orders of up to 10 products identified with barcode labels, according to the order placed by the Seller in the Euroarll Sales Application. For larger orders, the parties shall agree upon and outline in the agreement the time limits for order preparation. These terms do not apply to products not labelled as per Seller’s order. Moreover, Euroarll Sales will not process orders while stocktakes of Seller’s products are performed.
Orders wrongly delivered due to Euroarll Sales’s fault will not be considered eligible for settlement by the Seller, and Euroarll Sales will not include them in the invoice. For orders delivered to the wrong address due to Euroarll Sales’s fault, Euroarll Sales shall bear the return and re-shipment costs.
i) to take out an insurance policy for the entire acquisition value of Seller’s Products kept in its warehouses. In this case, the “entire acquisition value” shall mean the acquisition value of the Products (the invoice shall serve as a supporting document in case a compensation claim is filed for an insured event). If the value of the insurance premium is higher than 3% of the annual value of the provided services, the excess can be recharged to the Seller. In case of an insured event, Euroarll Sales will use the amount received as compensation to indemnify (to the extent of the value of the insurance policy) the Seller up to the amount of the incurred loss. The “amount of the incurred loss” shall mean the acquisition value (the invoice shall serve as a supporting document in case a compensation claim is filed for an insured event).
j) to receive the Products (Product unloading and storage costs shall be borne by Euroarll Sales) from the Seller, provided always that the Seller shall comply with the data contained in the acknowledged Order, the deadlines, the unloading schedules of the Euroarll Sales warehouses, the agreed delivery addresses, the quantity, type and quality of the Products received from the Seller, the loading and palletising structure.

k) Euroarll Sales, at this moment, represents and warrants that, at any time, the stocks reported in the Euroarll Sales Application are consistent with the physical stocks existing in its warehouses, which constitutes the book value. If, however, the Seller requests a physical stocktaking, Euroarll Sales will perform this stocktaking on dates mutually agreed upon by the parties. The Seller knows and accepts that any requested physical stocktaking will be invoiced as an order without taking into account the weight of the products. During the stocktaking, Euroarll Sales’s obligations related to order processing and preparation of the packages for delivery shall be suspended. Euroarll Sales will cover any inventory stock discrepancies attributable to Euroarll Sales up to the acquisition value proven by the Seller based on the stocktaking report and the tax invoice issued by the Seller within a maximum of 15 calendar days from issuance of the relevant invoice.
l) From the moment of the takeover of the Products from the Seller, Euroarll Sales shall ensure the preservation of the Products and shall take all appropriate measures to prevent their deterioration/alteration/degradation/ destruction/disappearance/loss. Furthermore, Euroarll Sales undertakes not to dispose of/mortgage/pledge or constitute any other charge or encumber in any way the Products subject to the Agreement. Euroarll Sales understands and agrees that by signing this Agreement, it does not acquire any title or other right regarding Seller’s Products unless otherwise expressly stated. However, Euroarll Sales cannot guarantee to its Sellers that the Products will not naturally be altered in the warehouses, and the Seller understands, declares and guarantees Euroarll Sales that it will not be able to claim any compensation (of any nature) for the Products that have been degraded naturally;
m) Euroarll Sales shall promptly inform the Seller about any factual or formal disturbance from any third party regarding the Products taken over from the Seller and shall take all necessary measures to ensure their preservation and limit losses;

The Seller with this undertakes:
a) to deliver to Euroarll Sales a Storage Order at least 48 hours before the delivery of new Product stocks (as specified in the Storage Order). In case of non-compliance with such a deadline, the Seller will have to pay an additional fee of EUR 30 + VAT/order. For purposes related to Product storage and the preparation of orders for delivery to the Clients, the Seller has to make available to Euroarll Sales all materials required to prepare the orders for delivery. Such materials shall include, without limitation (depending on the specifications requested by Euroarll Sales), the materials, documents, photographs, information, technical characteristics and specifications of the Products, etc., required for the documentation and handling of the Products within the warehouse. The materials shall be prepared in the format specified by Euroarll Sales for the correct and complete handling of the Products through Euroarll Sales. Any Product delivered with the intent to be managed and handled by Euroarll Sales, without the Seller making available the necessary material requested by Euroarll Sales, will be accepted subject to Euroarll Sales’s agreement.
b) to send, before submitting the Storage Order and whenever changes occur, the information specific to each Product/category of Products/model that Euroarll Sales needs to know for the work performed and the operations it needs to perform in connection with the storage and handling of the Products.
