3. Website Information
Meridian makes reasonable efforts to ensure that information published on the website is useful and current. However, website content may change from time to time and should not automatically be regarded as a binding commercial representation, offer or contractual commitment.
Product availability, pricing, specifications, quantities, delivery arrangements, timelines, payment terms and other commercial conditions may be subject to market conditions, supplier confirmation, due diligence and individual transaction documentation.
Information displayed on this website does not constitute a binding offer to sell any commodity, fuel product, service or other commercial offering unless expressly stated otherwise in a separate written agreement.
4. Requests for Quotations and Enquiries
Submitting a request through the website does not automatically create a contract between you and Meridian.
A request for quotation ("RFQ"), enquiry or other submission allows Meridian to assess the requirement and, where appropriate, engage with relevant suppliers, logistics providers or other parties.
Any quotation or commercial proposal issued by Meridian may be subject to:
- Product availability.
- Supplier confirmation.
- Quantity and specification.
- Delivery location and logistics.
- Market pricing.
- Counterparty verification.
- Compliance and due diligence.
- Applicable commercial terms.
- Execution of appropriate transaction documentation.
5. Commercial Transactions
Actual purchases, sales, supply arrangements, procurement mandates and other commercial transactions are governed by the specific written agreements, contracts, purchase orders, sales agreements or other transaction documentation applicable to that transaction.
Where a transaction is subject to separate contractual documentation, those documents will govern the specific commercial relationship and obligations between the relevant parties.
Website content does not replace or override a signed commercial agreement.
6. Suppliers and Third Parties
Meridian may work with independent suppliers, producers, logistics providers, storage facilities, terminals, professional advisers, financial institutions and other third parties in connection with its activities.
Third-party availability, performance, pricing, delivery schedules and contractual terms may be outside Meridian's direct control.
Where applicable, third-party services and transactions may be governed by separate terms and contractual arrangements.
7. Accuracy of Submitted Information
When submitting an enquiry, RFQ or other information to Meridian, you are responsible for ensuring that the information supplied is accurate, complete and not misleading.
Where information is submitted on behalf of a company or organisation, you represent that you are authorised to provide that information and communicate with Meridian on the organisation's behalf.

Meridian does not warrant that the website will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free or completely secure.
Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude or limit liability where doing so would be unlawful under applicable South African law.
