DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

Last updated: 22 March 2023

  1. Selection Criteria: We carefully select our distribution partners to ensure a strong alignment with our brand values, target market, and business strategy. We evaluate potential distributors based on factors such as store location, target customer demographics, and store aesthetics. To be considered for a partnership, please provide information about your store, customer base, and any relevant experience in the wallpaper and home decor industry. We will reply within 5 business days.

  2. Product Pricing: To maintain consistency and protect our brand image across different distribution channels, we require our partners to adhere to our minimum advertised prices (MAP) and recommended retail prices (RRP). We will provide you with a detailed price list, which includes both wholesale and retail pricing guidelines, to ensure a fair and competitive marketplace for our products. All prices listed in Norrviva's Price List are subject to change with 28 days's notice.  The distributor shall not modify the products, alter the packaging or sell the product in a different form than the one provided by Norrviva. Minimum advertised prices (including price after quantity discounts) can not be lower than 15% compared to the recommended retail prices.

  3. Order Minimums and Maximums: We offer full flexibility to our distributors; there is no minimum or maximum order quantity applicable.

  4. Payment Terms: Our payment terms include the accepted payment methods, invoicing procedures, and due dates. Payment methods available are credit card and wire transfer. The invoicing procedure is as follows: you will receive an invoice together with your order confirmation when your purchase order has been received and processed. Any late payments may be subject to interest charges. In some cases, we will require the payment to be processed before we can ship the order. We will work together to establish a mutually beneficial payment arrangement that supports a smooth and successful business partnership. Payment currency: Euros or Swedish Krona unless agreed otherwise. Due date for payment is typically within 0 to 30 days of invoice issuance. 

  5. Shipping and Delivery: We strive to ensure timely and efficient delivery of our products to our distributors, and we will work together to address any shipping and logistics concerns. As a distributor, you will be responsible for providing accurate shipping information and coordinating with us to ensure smooth delivery of our products to your store. In the event of any damages or losses during transit, please notify us immediately so that we can resolve the issue promptly and take appropriate action. Shipping time is usually 3-5 business days. Incoterms 2020 DAP – Delivered at Place shall apply unless agreed otherwise. Rates are shown at checkout.

  6. Taxes and Duties: Outside of the EU, business customers are responsible for all taxes, duties, and fees associated with the purchase and import of our products.

  7. Marketing and Branding: We ask our distribution partners to adhere to our brand guidelines when representing our products in their marketing materials. This includes the proper use of our logos, images, and product descriptions. We will provide you with a marketing toolkit containing promotional materials and guidelines to support your efforts in promoting our wallpapers. Additionally, we are open to discussing co-op advertising opportunities and other joint marketing initiatives to further boost our mutual success. The distributor acknowledges and agrees that all rights to, industrial and intellectual property of, the TradeMark, patterns and images belong to Norrviva.

  8. Exclusivity: We believe in fostering strong and lasting partnerships with our distributors, and we usually don’t work with exclusive distribution arrangements. We don’t allow our distributors to sub-licence, assign or transfer the right to sell our products without our consent.

  9. Cancellation and Returns: All sales are final. Cancellations or returns will only be accepted in exceptional circumstances, and at the sole discretion of Norrviva. If you have any concerns or issues with your order, please contact our customer service team as soon as possible.

                  • Warranty

                    We are liable for defects that were on such Products when they were purchased or delivered to you. A defect that becomes visible within ninety (90) days will be considered as having been there from the start, unless we can prove that the defect was not there upon purchase or delivery. After ninety (90) days it is up to you to prove that the defect was there upon purchase or delivery.

                    We are not responsible for any defects caused by you or any third-party that you will hire to install or manipulate the product, for example where you/they have not complied with maintenance instructions or if you have mistreated the Products.

This warranty is also void if the product has been installed, maintained, or repaired by anyone other than a qualified and authorised professional, in accordance with the provided installation and maintenance guidelines. Any damage or defects arising from the use of non-recommended adhesives, cleaning products, or other materials are also excluded from this warranty coverage. Please retain your proof of purchase, as it will be required for any warranty claims.

                    • Defects

                      Information about defective products, wrong delivery or transport damage should be given to us within "reasonable time" from when the defect was detected. A complaint made within one month from when the defect was detected is always considered to be done within a reasonable time. 

                      To complain about the product, contact us and notify the reason for the complaint. To ensure prompt and effective resolution, the complaint should include a clear description of the issue, relevant order or invoice numbers, and any supporting documentation, such as photographs or correspondence.

                      Upon receipt of a complaint, we will acknowledge it within a reasonable time frame, typically within five (5) business days. We will then investigate the issue and work diligently to resolve it to your satisfaction. We may require additional information or documentation from you to facilitate the resolution process. We aim to resolve all complaints within thirty (30) business days from the date of receipt, unless otherwise agreed upon by both parties.

                      If we determine that this is a valid complaint, we will send out a return label which you can use for free return of your product.

                      Your rights in the event of defects

                      In the event of defects, you may:

                        • Require a new delivery, meaning that you will receive other equivalent products, provided that it may be achieved to a reasonable cost for us.
                        • Require price reduction or compensation.
                        • Terminate the agreement, provided that the defect is of material importance to you.
                      • Delay

                        Sometimes we may not deliver the Products within the period agreed between us (and you have not caused this delay). You can in the event of such delay terminate the agreement and cancel your order, provided that the delay is of material importance to you.

                        • Cancellation

                          You may not cancel your order after the Products have been shipped even if they have not yet been delivered to you. If you cancel the order before the Products have been shipped, we are entitled to compensation for costs that we have had in relation to the order.

                          • Third party services as a part of our Products

                            Sometimes we may rely on third party services and/or product providers. Such providers act beyond our reasonable control and we shall not be held liable for any damages caused by an action or omission attributable to them.  

                            • Defects and delays beyond our control (force majeure)

                              We are not responsible for delays and defects outside our control. If our suppliers are delayed by an event outside our control, then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided that we do this we will not be liable for defects and delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial defect or delay you may contact us to end the agreement and receive a refund for any Products you have paid for but not received.  

                               

                              WITHDRAWAL RIGHT
