At DARS SYRUPS, we understand that timely, safe, and reliable delivery is an essential part of customer satisfaction. As a heritage-based business with a proud legacy of over 150 years rooted in Thatta, Sindh, our responsibility does not end with preparing traditional syrups. It extends to ensuring that every order is carefully packed, properly handled, and delivered to customers across Pakistan with care and transparency.

For generations, families have trusted DARS SYRUPS not only for the quality of our products but also for our honest business practices. This Shipping Policy explains in detail how orders are processed, dispatched, transported, and delivered, along with the responsibilities of both the customer and the business. Our aim is to set clear expectations, reduce misunderstandings, and provide a smooth delivery experience for everyone.

This policy is written in clear, simple English for customers across Pakistan. It follows responsible business practices, Pakistan consumer protection principles, and realistic delivery standards for food-based products. By placing an order through our website, phone, or WhatsApp, you agree to the terms outlined in this Shipping Policy.
