Terms of Service

American Select Foods is a wholesale distributor. Our products and pricing are intended for coffee shops, restaurants, and other businesses purchasing for commercial use or resale. We may require a valid resale certificate or business documentation before opening an account.

Orders are placed by phone at (626) 359-2220 or by email at americanselectfoods@gmail.com. This website is informational — it does not process orders or payments.

All orders are subject to acceptance and product availability. We may decline or cancel an order, or adjust quantities, at our discretion. An order is not binding on us until we confirm it.

This website does not display pricing. Wholesale pricing is quoted per account and confirmed at the time your order is accepted. Call us for a current quote.

We make reasonable efforts to keep product information, images, specifications, and availability accurate, but we do not warrant that all content on this site is complete, current, or error-free. Product packaging and formulations may change. We reserve the right to correct errors, including pricing errors, at any time.

Payment terms are established per account. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, payment is due upon delivery. Accounts with approved credit terms must pay within the terms stated on the invoice. Past-due balances may be subject to a late charge and may result in orders being placed on hold.

Prices exclude applicable sales tax. Orders are taxed at the applicable California state and local sales tax rate. Customers claiming resale exemption must provide a current, valid resale certificate. The customer is responsible for any taxes not collected by us due to an invalid or expired exemption certificate.

Delivery, pickup, and freight are governed by our Shipping & Delivery Policy, which is incorporated into these terms by reference.

All food and beverage products — including coffee, frappe mixes, and smoothie purees — are final sale and cannot be returned. This is standard practice across the food distribution industry and applies regardless of whether the product has been opened.

Espresso machines and other equipment cannot be returned once they have been shipped or installed. Running water and coffee through a machine renders it a used unit, and it can no longer be sold as new. Please confirm your model, configuration, and site requirements with us before ordering — we are glad to help you choose the right machine.

The one exception to the above is damage in transit. Please inspect all deliveries on arrival and note any visible damage or shortage on the delivery receipt or freight bill before signing.

Report damage to us within 48 hours at (626) 359-2220 or americanselectfoods@gmail.com, keeping the original packaging and photographing the damage where possible. We will replace the product or issue a credit at no cost to you.

Commercial espresso machines carry a one-year warranty against manufacturing defects, beginning on the date of delivery. Warranty service covers defects in materials and workmanship.

The warranty does not cover damage from improper installation, untreated or hard water, lack of routine maintenance and descaling, power irregularities, or normal wear on consumable parts such as gaskets, screens, and filters.

To open a warranty claim, contact us at (626) 359-2220 and we will arrange service. A warranty claim is a repair — it is not a return, and it does not entitle the customer to a refund or exchange.

Customers are responsible for storing, handling, preparing, and serving product in accordance with manufacturer instructions, product labeling, and all applicable food safety laws and health department requirements.

Customers reselling or serving our products are responsible for accurate labeling and allergen disclosure to their own customers.

The content on this website — including text, images, logos, and the Duchess brand — is owned by American Select Foods, Inc. or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reproduce, or use it without our prior written permission.

Third-party brands and manufacturer marks shown on this site are the property of their respective owners and are used to identify the products we distribute.

Except as expressly stated in these terms or in our Return Policy, and except for any applicable manufacturer warranty, products are provided without warranty of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all implied warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.

This website is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. We do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted or error-free.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, American Select Foods is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including lost profits or business interruption, arising out of your use of this website or your purchase or use of our products. Our total liability for any claim will not exceed the amount you paid for the product giving rise to the claim.

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law rules. Any dispute arising out of these terms or your purchase of our products will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California, and you consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.

We may update these terms at any time. Changes take effect when posted to this page, and the “last updated” date above will be revised. Your continued use of the site or placement of new orders constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
