Return & Refund Policy
Effective Date: January 1, 2026 — Last Updated: February 2026
At Central Mexicana de Distribución, we're committed to providing a seamless and satisfying shopping experience. If you're not entirely satisfied with your purchase, we offer a customer-friendly return and refund policy to ensure your peace of mind.
Return Policy:
- Return Period: We accept returns within 30 days of purchase, both for online and in-store purchases. The return period begins on the date of delivery for shipped orders, or the date of pickup for curbside pickup and in-store pickup orders.
- Item Conditions: Returned items must be in their original packaging, unused, and free of any damage or signs of wear and tear. Items must be in new condition (unopened in original packaging or never used). To ensure a smooth return process, please retain all receipts and documentation related to your purchase.
- Proof of Purchase: Please provide a valid proof of purchase, such as a sales receipt, order confirmation email, or packing slip, when returning an item. For orders placed through our E-Commerce platform, your order confirmation email or account order history may serve as proof of purchase.
- Refund Method: We issue refunds in the original payment method used for the purchase. Credit card refunds processed through Stripe, PayPal, or Authorize.net will be credited back to the same account. Cash purchases may be refunded in cash or via store credit at the retailer's discretion. Please allow 5–10 business days for refunds to appear on your statement after the return has been processed.
- Restocking Fees: We do not charge restocking fees on standard returns.
