Shipping Reminder
Perdue Farms Shipping Changes
Shipping frozen but highly-perishable foods across the country is actually very challenging (and costly) to pull off successfully. That's probably the main reason there are not many competitors in this space. It's also why Perdue Farms is amending their free shipping policy to exclude 17 Midwestern, Southwestern and Western U.S. states with distant and/or very hot climates (they have to use expedited air shipping for these states from their eastern US distribution centers). Please note that Perdue Farms does not ship to Alaska at all.
The states that now have a shipping charge are AZ, CA, CO, HI, ID, MT, ND, NE, NM, NV, OK, OR, SD, TX, UT, WA, and WY. The shipping charge for these states now vary to cover the use of expedited air transport. You can visit this Perdue Farms shipping page for the charges and details on these states. They regretted having to make this decision but it simply was not viable to continue shipping these distances at such a loss. Please be sure to update your messaging accordingly if you have a national audience.
03-Aug-2021 Update - Please note that we now have several weeks of affiliate data to analyze since this shipping change and I'm pleased to report that it does not seem to be suppressing affiliate numbers much, if at all. While the number of sales placed may be down slightly, average order values (AOVs) are significantly up compared to before the change and affiliate earnings month over month (June and July) show an insignificant level of change.
Thank you for your part in making the Perdue Farms Affiliate Program a success!
