§1.7.4 Contracts for goods intended for current consumption

Article 3 3. This Directive shall not apply to contracts: (j) for the supply of foodstuffs, beverages or other goods intended for current consumption in the household, and which are physically supplied by a trader on frequent and regular rounds to the consumer’s home, residence or workplace; This exception requires two conditions to be met, namely: (a) that the trader delivers the goods on ‘frequent and regular rounds’, and (b) that these goods are for ‘current consumption in the household’. The explicit reference to delivery to the consumer’s ‘workplace’ in this provision suggests that that the actual consumption of the goods does not necessarily need to take place at home.
