Terms of service

General Terms and Conditions of LMT Hospitality GmbH for the Sale of Goods to Business Customers at www.lmt-hospo.com

§ 1 Scope, Definitions

1. These General Terms and Conditions (the "Terms") apply to all contracts for the supply of goods concluded between Fjord Coffee Roasters Berlin – LMT Hospitality GmbH, Zur Alten Börse 79, 12681 Berlin ("we" or "LMT") and the customer through the online shop at www.lmt-hospo.com, in the version valid at the time of the order.

2. Our offer is directed exclusively at businesses (Unternehmer). A business within the meaning of these Terms is a natural or legal person or a partnership with legal capacity that, when concluding the contract, acts in the exercise of its commercial or independent professional activity (§ 14 German Civil Code / BGB). By placing an order, the customer confirms that it is acting as a business.

3. Any deviating, conflicting or supplementary terms and conditions of the customer shall only become part of the contract if and to the extent that we have expressly agreed to their application in writing. This requirement of consent applies even if we carry out the delivery without reservation while being aware of the customer's terms.

§ 2 Conclusion of Contract

1. The presentation of products in the online shop does not constitute a legally binding offer, but an invitation to place an order.

2. By clicking the "Purchase" button, the customer submits a binding offer to conclude a purchase contract for the goods in the shopping cart. Before submitting the order, the customer may review and correct the entries at any time using the usual keyboard and mouse functions and the correction prompts in the order process.

3. We may accept the customer's offer within two business days by sending an order confirmation by e-mail or by delivering the goods. The contract is concluded upon our acceptance. An automatic acknowledgement of receipt of the order does not yet constitute acceptance.

4. The contract is concluded with LMT Hospitality GmbH, Zur Alten Börse 79, 12681 Berlin. We store the contract text and send the customer the order data and these Terms by e-mail. The contract text is not made accessible beyond this.

§ 3 Subject Matter of the Contract

The subject matter of the contract is the purchase of products, in particular coffee, tea and accessories for coffee and tea preparation, as well as other hospitality supplies. We produce coffee fresh upon receipt of an order (including roasting and grinding, where required and agreed).

§ 4 Prices, Payment, Shipping Costs and Delivery

1. The prices for the products are shown in the online shop prior to conclusion of the contract. They are net prices plus statutory VAT at the applicable rate. In addition to the prices shown, we charge shipping costs; these are clearly communicated to the customer on the product pages, in the shopping cart and on the order page.

2. We offer the following payment methods:

  1. Credit card: Payment is made immediately upon checkout.
  2. SEPA Direct Debit (SEPA-Lastschriftmandat): By selecting SEPA Direct Debit, you grant us a SEPA mandate authorising us to collect the invoice amount from your bank account. The debit is initiated at the point of delivery. You will be notified of the upcoming debit in advance in accordance with SEPA requirements (Pre-Notification).
  3. Invoice / bank transfer (on request): Subject to prior agreement and a credit check, we may grant payment by invoice. In that case, the invoice amount is payable within 15 days of the invoice date by bank transfer without deduction. We reserve the right to refuse or revoke payment by invoice in individual cases.

3. If the customer defaults on payment, we are entitled to charge default interest at the statutory rate. We reserve the right to claim further damages caused by the default.

4. Unless otherwise expressly stated in the product description, all products offered are ready for shipment within two business days (delivery time: approx. 2 to 4 days). We roast, grind (where requested and agreed) and package each coffee order fresh and only upon its receipt; immediate shipment of coffee is therefore not possible.

§ 5 Retention of Title

1. The delivered goods remain our property until full payment of all claims arising from the business relationship with the customer (goods subject to retention of title).

2. The customer is entitled to resell the goods subject to retention of title in the ordinary course of business. The customer hereby assigns to us, by way of security, the claims arising from the resale against its customers in the amount of our invoice value. We accept this assignment. The customer remains authorised to collect the claim even after the assignment, as long as it meets its payment obligations towards us.

3. In the event of conduct by the customer in breach of contract, in particular default in payment, we are entitled to take back the goods subject to retention of title; taking back the goods does not constitute a withdrawal from the contract unless we expressly declare so in writing.

4. The customer must notify us without delay of any access by third parties to the goods subject to retention of title, for example in the event of seizure.

§ 6 Warranty, Duty to Inspect and Give Notice of Defects

1. The customer's rights in respect of defects of quality and title are governed by the statutory provisions, unless otherwise provided below.

2. The customer must inspect the delivered goods without delay upon receipt and notify us of any obvious defects without delay, and at the latest within seven days of receipt, in text form. Hidden defects must be notified without delay after their discovery. If the customer fails to give such notice, the goods are deemed approved, unless the defect is one that we fraudulently concealed (§ 377 German Commercial Code / HGB).

3. For perishable goods, in particular coffee and tea, inspection and notice must be carried out particularly promptly, as a later assessment of the condition is only possible to a limited extent.

4. The limitation period for claims based on defects is twelve months from delivery of the goods. This does not apply to claims for damages arising from injury to life, body or health, or from intent or gross negligence, or in the case of fraudulently concealed defects; in those cases the statutory limitation periods apply.

§ 7 Liability

1. We are liable without limitation for damages arising from injury to life, body or health that are based on a negligent or intentional breach of duty by us, our legal representatives or our vicarious agents, and for damages caused by us intentionally or through gross negligence.

2. In the event of a slightly negligent breach of a material contractual obligation, our liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for the contract. Material contractual obligations are obligations whose fulfilment is essential to the proper performance of the contract and on whose compliance the customer may regularly rely.

3. Any further liability is excluded. In particular, we are not liable for the slightly negligent breach of non-material contractual obligations. Liability under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz) remains unaffected.

§ 8 Data Protection

We process the customer's personal data in order to perform the contract. The controller is LMT Hospitality GmbH, Zur Alten Börse 79, 12681 Berlin. Details of the processing of personal data, the customer's rights and the service providers used are set out in our Privacy Policy.

§ 9 Contractual Language

German and English are available as the contractual language. The German version is authoritative for the interpretation of these Terms.

§ 10 Final Provisions

1. The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies, to the exclusion of the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).

2. The exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising out of or in connection with this contract is Berlin, provided that the customer is a merchant, a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law. However, we are also entitled to bring an action against the customer at its general place of jurisdiction.

3. The place of performance for all obligations under this contract is Berlin.

4. Should individual provisions of these Terms be or become invalid or unenforceable, the validity of the remaining provisions shall remain unaffected.
