Ordering with Catering A to Z (CATZ) is designed to be simple and flexible. Below you’ll find answers to the most common questions about delivery, preparation times, minimum orders and scheduling.

Where does CATZ deliver?

CATZ delivers across the United Arab Emirates. Delivery availability, minimum order values and delivery charges may vary depending on the emirate and delivery area. The applicable delivery conditions will be shown during checkout or communicated before the order is confirmed.

How far in advance should I place my order?

Most CATZ orders should be placed approximately 24 to 48 hours in advance.

Preparation time depends on:

  • The products selected

For larger, customised, corporate or event orders, additional notice may be required.

In some cases, yes. Selected orders may be accepted with less than 24 hours’ notice, depending on:

  • Product availability

  • Required preparation time

Urgent orders are subject to confirmation by CATZ.

Once preparation has started, CATZ may not be able to accommodate the change.

CATZ cannot guarantee that a requested change can be accepted once the order has entered preparation or dispatch.

What happens if the driver cannot find my location?

Please make sure your number is correct and reachable on the delivery day.

If the address is incomplete or incorrect, delivery may be delayed and additional delivery charges may apply if a new delivery attempt is required.

What happens if nobody is available to receive the order?

Customers should ensure that someone is available to receive the order during the selected delivery period.

If nobody is available and our team cannot contact you, we may be unable to complete the delivery.

Because CATZ products are fresh and perishable, re-delivery cannot always be guaranteed. An additional delivery charge may apply if another delivery attempt is possible.

Please refer to our Refund & Cancellation Policy for more information.

What happens if my delivery is delayed?

CATZ makes reasonable efforts to deliver within the selected delivery window. Occasional delays may happen because of:

  • Heavy traffic

  • Building access delays
  • Delivery-route disruption
  • Large order volumes
  • Other circumstances outside our reasonable control

If we expect a significant delay, our team will make reasonable efforts to contact you.
