Terms and Conditions
Last updated: 18 May 2026
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms“) govern your access to and use of the website www.ruenfarm.com (the “Website“) and any enquiries, communications, or business dealings you have with us through the Website. Please read these Terms carefully before using the Website. By accessing or using the Website, you confirm that you accept these Terms and agree to comply with them. If you do not agree, you must not use the Website.
These Terms are written in English. The contract between you and us, which is formed, will also be in English.
1. About us
The Website is operated by:
Global Trade 97 Ltd (trading as Ruen Farm), a private limited company registered in England and Wales, Company number: 15208802 Registered office: F04 1st Floor Knightrider House, Knightrider Street, Maidstone, Kent, United Kingdom, ME15 6LU
In these Terms, “we“, “us,” and “our” refer to Global Trade 97 Ltd; “you” and “your” refer to the person accessing or using the Website.
Contact: globaltrade97k@gmail.com
2. Nature of the Website
The Website is an informational and brand presentation site for our Ruen Farm honey products. It is not an online shop, and we do not conclude sales contracts with consumers through the Website itself.
Direct retail purchases of Ruen Farm products are made through our partner marketplace, Amazon UK. When you click any “Shop on Amazon” link, you leave the Website and enter into a separate contract with Amazon and/or with us as an Amazon seller, governed by Amazon’s own Conditions of Use and Sale. We are not responsible for Amazon’s terms, prices, delivery times, returns process, or website.
For Wholesale and Private Label business enquiries, the Website provides enquiry forms. Submitting an enquiry is not a binding order and does not create a sales contract. Any subsequent business relationship will be governed by a separate written agreement between us and your business.
3. Changes to these Terms
We may revise these Terms at any time by updating this page. Every time you wish to use the Website, please check these Terms to ensure you understand the version that applies at that time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page shows when the Terms were last revised. Continued use of the Website after a change constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
4. Changes to the Website
We may update and change the Website from time to time to reflect changes to our products, our users’ needs, and our business priorities. We do not guarantee that the Website, or any content on it, will always be available or uninterrupted.

These works are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws of the United Kingdom, the European Union, and other jurisdictions, including the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 and Directive 2001/29/EC.

8. Trademarks
Ruen Farm® is a registered trademark of Global Trade 97 Ltd. All other trademarks, service marks, trade names, and logos appearing on the Website are the property of their respective owners. Nothing on the Website should be construed as granting, by implication or otherwise, any licence or right to use any trade mark without our prior written permission or the permission of the relevant third-party owner.
9. Product information and accuracy
We take care to describe our products accurately. However:
- product images, colours, and packaging are for illustration only and may differ slightly from the goods actually supplied (for example, because of natural variation in raw honey colour, viscosity, and crystallisation);
- nutritional information, harvest origin, and analytical figures are based on reasonable testing of representative samples and may vary between batches within the limits permitted by applicable food law;
- pricing, availability, and product range on Amazon UK are determined and displayed on Amazon and may differ from any indicative information shown on the Website.
Where the description of a product or any other content on the Website contains an obvious error, we are not bound by it.
10. Important notice about raw honey (food safety)
Our products are raw, unpasteurised, single-origin honey.
- Honey, including Ruen Farm honey, must not be given to infants under 12 months of age, due to the risk of infant botulism. This is consistent with the official guidance of the UK National Health Service (NHS) and the World Health Organization (WHO).
- People who are allergic to bee products, pollen, or who have specific medical conditions should consult a medical professional before consumption.
- Information on the Website about the qualities of honey is provided for general information only and does not constitute medical advice. Honey is a food, not a medicine, and no claim is made that it can prevent, treat, or cure any disease.
Always read the information on the product label before consumption.
11. Wholesale and Private Label enquiries
The Wholesale and Private Label sections of the Website are intended exclusively for business customers (sole traders, partnerships, and companies). By submitting an enquiry through these sections, you confirm that you are acting in the course of a trade, business, craft, or profession.
Any enquiry, indicative quote, sample shipment, or preliminary discussion that follows:
- is for information and negotiation purposes only;
- does not create any binding offer, contract, or obligation to supply;
- is subject to a separate written contract (and, where relevant, a private-label or supply agreement) being signed by both parties;
- is conditional on completion of our customer due diligence, including verification of identity and, where applicable, of the business and of compliance with food law in the country of destination.
The Consumer Rights Act 2015, the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, and analogous EU consumer protection rules do not apply to business-to-business transactions.
12. Third-party links
The Website may contain links to other websites and resources provided by third parties, including Amazon UK and social media platforms. These links are provided for your information only. Such links should not be interpreted as approval by us of those linked websites or of any information you may obtain from them.
We have no control over the contents of those sites or resources and accept no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them. When you access a third-party site, you do so subject to that site’s own terms and privacy notice.
