Product means any beer or spirits making product or equipment distributed by us and supplied by us to you.
Product Price means the purchase price payable for the sale of the Product excluding any applicable Service Fee.
Separate Service Contract see clause 5.
We, us or our, refers to the New Zealand Craft Brewing Company (AU) Limited (ABN 45623870020) entity that supplies you with a Product.
You or your means the legal entity of the customer specified on an invoice or in any credit application or other agreement with us, or the customer to whom our goods are supplied, and if more than one person, each of them jointly and severally.

    Buying the Product

  1. Unless otherwise agreed in writing, you request that we supply Products to you on these Terms.
  2. We may accept or decline any order for the Product in whole or in part. On acceptance, these Terms apply (unless we have made a separate written agreement with you about supply of the Product).
  3. We may change the specifications or ingredients of any Product from time to time and we are not required to notify you of such a change.

  4. Delivery and Freight

  5. You agree to pay any freight charges and fees as advised by us applicable to all Product deliveries.  You acknowledge and consent to us delivering any Products to you using a subcontractor or a third party member of our distribution network.
  6. As a separate and independent contract from the contract relating to the Product, you agree to contract with us to deliver, on your behalf, any Product you order to you at the delivery location agreed between us and you.
  7. The Product is deemed to be delivered when the Product arrives at your nominated delivery point, which delivery point must be safe and fully accessible. Neither we, nor our carriers or members of our distribution network are required to collect a signature from you or other proof of delivery.
  8. You cannot cancel an order once we have accepted it and you cannot refuse to accept delivery.
  9. Whilst delivery in most cases should be within 7 business days, any delivery times communicated by us to you are estimates only, and you are not entitled to refuse to accept delivery of Products due to a delay in delivery. You acknowledge that we are not liable to you for any costs or losses that you suffer or incur as a result of any late delivery of the Products.
  10. We are entitled to charge you additional fees to cover any delay or storage needed if we attempt to deliver the Product to you, but cannot for any reason.

  11. Charges and Payment

  12. Our prices are subject to alteration without notice. Unless we otherwise agree in writing, the price payable for the Products will be our current price at the date of delivery (plus any freight and delivery charges or other applicable charges payable by you).
  13. The charges specified in our standard price list, or quoted to you by us from time to time, do not include GST unless expressly specified otherwise.
  14. The Product price is separate and distinct from any applicable Freight charge or Service Fee. Even though the amounts may be listed in one invoice they are not a single lump sum consideration but represent separate consideration for each independent contract.
  15. You must pay all charges listed in an invoice (including any GST and other taxes payable in connection with the supply or under these Terms) without set-off by the due date specified in the invoice. Time is of the essence with respect to this requirement.
  16. If you pay by cheque, payment is not made until cleared funds are credited to our account. If you pay by credit card, we may charge you an additional amount to cover service fees.
  17. We may charge you interest on any late payments at the Reserve Bank Interbank Overnight Cash Rate + 2%, calculated daily and compounding monthly, until you pay the overdue amounts.
  18. We are entitled to apply any payments we receive from you against any invoice or liability you have to us (including interest payments). This provision revokes any different or contrary direction given by you to us.
  19. If you do not pay any amounts payable under these Terms by their due date or you become bankrupt, insolvent or have a receiver, manager or liquidator appointed to you, then all monies for all Product and Equipment delivered to you become immediately due and payable (regardless of any agreed credit terms) and we are entitled to suspend all further delivery of Product and Equipment under this or any other arrangement and all further performance of any other contract between you and us, until you pay all amounts due.
  20. You indemnify us for all costs we incur because of any overdue payment, including dishonour fees, collection fees or legal fees.
  21. If any payment you make is voided or conceded to be void or is voidable at our election, then that payment does not discharge your debt to us, and we remain the owner of the Product.

  22. Ownership & Return of Product and Equipment

  23. We remain the owner of the Product specified in this invoice until you have paid all money you owe us for the Product and for any other Product we have supplied to you.
  24. We remain the owner of any Equipment we may supply you at all times. Except for equipment purchased for resale, you must not part with possession or control of our Equipment at any time, or attempt to sell it.
  25. After we deliver the Product or Equipment to you and while we still own it, you hold it for us as our bailee, which carries certain legal obligations including a duty to take care of the Product or Equipment. You promise to fulfil all your legal obligations as bailee.
  26. You must store or keep the Product and Equipment so that it is clearly identifiable as our property while we still own it. If you sell the Product while we still own it, we have the right to trace any proceeds of sale.
  27. We grant you the right to sell the Products to a third party before you have received title to them provided that where you sell the Products before such title has been transferred you agree to hold the proceeds from that sale on trust for us and you must pay those proceeds to us on demand.
  28. Until you have paid us the charges in full for all monies payable to us, we may repossess the Product and Equipment which we own and you authorise us or our nominees to enter any premises they believe the Product and Equipment are located to repossess the Product and Equipment and to inspect your records.
  29. We may resell Product and Equipment which we repossess on any terms and as we see fit. We may apply the proceeds to repay any debt you owe us.
  30. We are not liable for any damage caused to the premises during any repossession. You indemnify us against any Claim for the damage made by another person.
  31. If these Terms (or a transaction in connection with it) is or contains a security interest for the purposes of the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 (“PPSA”), you must upon request do anything which we consider necessary for the purposes of ensuring that the security interest is enforceable, perfected and otherwise effective, and to enable us to apply for any registration, give any notification, and to exercise any rights in connection with the security interest.
  32. We are not obliged, before exercising a right under these Terms or conferred by law, to give you any notice or demand, or allow a lapse of time, that is required by law unless the notice, demand or lapse of time cannot be excluded. To the extent permitted by law, you expressly waive any rights you may have under the PPSA (including without limitation s. 157) to be given any such notices or demands.

  33. Risk and insurance

  34. Risk in the Product and any Equipment passes to you as soon as it is delivered to you, to your premises or the place nominated by you and agreed by us.

  43. In the absence of manifest error, our written records in relation to a delivery of Products will be conclusive evidence of the type and quantity of Products delivered and of the date and time of delivery.
  44. In the absence of manifest error, certification from our authorised representative will be conclusive evidence of the amount owed for the Products.

  45. Liability

  46. To the maximum extent permitted by law (including Part 3-2 of the Australian Consumer Law), we limit our liability to you in respect of any Claim relating to the Product, the Equipment or any services we provide to you in connection with them to our choice of supplying equivalent Product or Equipment, or resupplying the services, or giving you a credit for any price paid or payable for the Product, Equipment or services.
  47. We warrant that we will provide you with good title to the goods and that the goods will be of merchantable quality and except for those statutory guarantees that apply under the Australian Consumer Law, we exclude all other express or implied warranties or representations about the Products, Equipment or services we provide to you in connection with them.
  48. Except as provided in clause 51, we are not liable to you for any Claim in relation to lost profits or savings or any indirect or consequential losses.
  49. Neither we nor you are liable to the other for any failure to perform an obligation under these Terms (other than the payment of money) where we are prevented from performing because of an act of God, natural disaster, terrorism, war or any other occurrence beyond the relevant party’s reasonable control.
  50. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (known as the Vienna Sales Convention 1980) is excluded.
