factorysourcebeautysupplies.com

Effective Date: Draft — to be dated at launch

1. Introduction

These Terms and Conditions govern your access to and use of the website factorysourcebeautysupplies.com, our shop at Okaishie Market, Accra, Greater Accra, Ghana, and any related sales channels operated by Factory Source Beauty Supply (“Factory Source,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a business registered in Ghana.

By accessing this website, placing an order, or otherwise transacting with Factory Source, you (“Customer,” “you,” or “your”) acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions in full. If you do not agree, you must not use this website or place any orders.

2. Eligibility

2.1 Age Requirement. You must be at least 18 years of age to make a purchase through this website. By placing an order, you represent and warrant that you meet this requirement.

2.2 Accuracy of Information. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information when placing an order, creating an account, or otherwise interacting with this website.

3. Products

3.1 Product Descriptions. We make reasonable efforts to ensure that product descriptions, images, and specifications displayed on this website are accurate. However, we do not warrant that product descriptions, colours, images, or other content are error-free, complete, or current. Slight variations in colour or appearance may occur due to screen display settings.

3.2 Availability. All products are subject to availability. Stock shown on this website is shared with our shop, so an item can sell out in the shop before your order is confirmed. We reserve the right to discontinue any product at any time without prior notice.

3.3 Product Use. Hair tools and electrical products must be used in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Factory Source accepts no liability for damage, injury, or loss resulting from misuse, improper handling, or failure to follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

3.4 Manufacturer Warranties. Certain products may carry a manufacturer’s warranty. Where a manufacturer’s warranty applies, its terms and duration are set by the manufacturer, not by Factory Source. We will assist you in directing any warranty claim to the relevant manufacturer but do not independently warrant the products beyond what is required by applicable law.

4. Prices, Orders and Payment

4.1 Our Prices. Every product has a fixed shelf price. The wholesale price applies (i) to any product you buy 12 or more of in one order, counting all of its colours, sizes and styles together; and (ii) to every product in your order once the order, priced at wholesale, reaches GHS 1,000. The price that applies is calculated automatically and shown to you before you pay. Prices are not negotiable.

4.2 Order Placement. An order placed through this website constitutes an offer to purchase the selected products. We reserve the right to accept or decline any order at our sole discretion, including where: (i) the product is out of stock; (ii) there is a pricing or product description error; (iii) we are unable to verify your payment; or (iv) we suspect fraud or unauthorised activity.

4.3 Order Confirmation. An order is confirmed and a binding contract is formed only when we send you an order confirmation by SMS, email, WhatsApp or another communication channel. Until that point, no contract exists between you and Factory Source.

4.4 Currency and Changes. All prices are in Ghanaian Cedis (GHS) unless otherwise stated. Prices are subject to change without notice, but changes will not affect orders that have already been confirmed.

4.5 Payment Methods. We accept Mobile Money and, at our shop, cash. Where online payment is offered at checkout, it is processed by our payment provider. All payments must be received in full before an order is released for collection or dispatch.

4.6 Payment Security. Online payments are subject to our payment provider’s own terms of service and security protocols. Factory Source does not store your card details or Mobile Money PINs.

5. Collection and Delivery

5.1 Collection. You may collect your order from our shop at Okaishie Market, Accra, Greater Accra, Ghana. We will tell you when it is ready. Please bring your order number.

5.2 Courier Delivery. Factory Source does not operate its own delivery fleet. If you choose courier delivery, you send us your location after ordering and we tell you the fare of a third-party rider or courier. Nothing is dispatched until you agree to that fare, and you pay it directly to the rider when your order arrives. Delivery fares are set by the rider or courier, not by us.

5.3 Delivery Timeframes. Because delivery is handled by independent third-party riders and couriers, Factory Source does not control and cannot guarantee specific delivery dates or transit times once an order has been handed over.

5.4 Risk of Loss. Risk of loss and damage to products passes to you when you collect your order at our shop or when the order is handed over to the rider or courier for delivery.

5.5 Dispatch Confirmation. When your order is handed to a rider or courier, we will give you the details we have of the handover, such as the rider’s name and telephone number, or a tracking number where the courier provides one. You are responsible for using this information to follow up on your delivery.

5.6 Lost or Undelivered Orders. If your order does not arrive within a reasonable period, you must notify us within 14 days of dispatch. We will give you the handover details we hold to support your enquiry with the rider or courier. Our obligation is limited to that reasonable assistance; we are not liable for the value of orders lost or damaged after risk has passed to you under section 5.4.

5.7 Full Terms. Collection and delivery are subject to our separate Collection & Delivery Policy, available on this website, which forms part of these Terms and Conditions.

6. Returns, Refunds, and Exchanges

6.1 Return Window. You may request a return within 7 days of receiving your order, provided the item is unused, in its original condition, and in its original packaging with all accessories, tags, and proof of purchase.

6.2 Non-Returnable Items. Certain items are not eligible for return, including opened or used hair accessories and consumable hair care products.

6.3 Defective or Damaged Items. If you receive a defective, damaged, or incorrect item, you must notify us within 48 hours of receiving it with your order number, a description of the issue, and photographs or video evidence.

6.4 Refund Processing. Approved refunds are processed within 7 to 14 business days to the original payment method or another mutually agreed method.

6.5 Full Terms. Returns, refunds, and exchanges are subject to our separate Return and Refund Policy, available on this website, which forms part of these Terms and Conditions.

7. Accounts

7.1 Account Creation. You can order without an account. If you create one, you agree to provide accurate and complete information and to keep it up to date.

7.2 Account Security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials, including your password, and for all activity under your account. You must notify us immediately at shop@factorysourcebeautysupplies.com if you become aware of any unauthorised use of your account or any other breach of security.

7.3 Account Suspension and Termination. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account at any time if we reasonably believe that: (i) you have breached these Terms and Conditions; (ii) your account has been used for fraudulent or unauthorised activity; or (iii) continued access to your account poses a security risk. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you before or promptly after any suspension or termination, unless doing so would compromise security or an ongoing investigation.
