Minimum Advertised Price Policy:

Functional Nutriments Price Schedules have been created exclusively for authorized Distributors, Retailers, and Wholesalers. We value our network of Accounts for its excellent customer service, support, and hands-on expertise delivered along with our Products to authorized resellers and end-users. Functional Nutriments supports advertising in print media, via direct mail and on the Internet as promotional tools for its resellers. In order to alleviate aggressive price shopping and brand degradation as well as to reinforce the advantages of our Products in the areas of quality, as well as service delivered by our Accounts, we have established a Minimum Advertised Price (MAP) Policy.

All Accounts, as well as their network of resellers, are asked to adhere to this MAP Policy. Functional Nutriments has established the following MAP Policy to better reflect our business philosophy and shall be adhered to and enforced by all of its Accounts and their direct or indirect reseller networks and distributors.

  1. The maximum allowable MAP discount will be no more than 30% below the Functional Nutriments Suggested Retail Price (SRP) for each Product. This policy does not establish a maximum price for any Functional Nutriments Product and applies to the SRP published on its Price Lists and on our website at FunctionaiNutriments.com
  2. If an Account wishes to sell Functional Nutriments Products for more than 30% below the Functional Nutriments SRP, the Account must: promote such price "in store"; verbally advise or speak with a customer in person; or, have any potential inquiring Internet customer register their name and contact information and further have the potential customer add the Product to a shopping cart before providing such pricing. Advertising Product prices more than 30% below the Functional Nutriments SRP shall be considered a material breach of this MAP Policy.
  3. The MAP is established by Functional Nutriments for its Products and may be adjusted by us without prior notice at any time. Functional Nutriments reserves the right to modify or suspend the MAP program for its full Product range or by specific Product line by notifying all distributors and resellers of such change in advance.
  4. From time to time, Functional Nutriments may engage in specific promotions of certain Products. In so doing, the MAP Policy continues to apply to SRP prices. In no way does the implementation of a promotional price or discounted price period by Functional Nutriments negate the MAP policy or our Accounts' responsibilities in implementing it.
  5. The intentional or unintentional failure to follow this MAP Policy will result in either the termination of the Account relationship with Functional Nutriments or changes in the purchase Price List structure with Functional Nutriments. Functional Nutriments will not continue in any business relationship with Accounts that do not follow this distribution philosophy and business strategy.

Functional Nutriments, LLC reserves the right to pursue suit against any individual, party or company who breaches the Terms & Conditions and MAP Policy outlined above. You hereby submit to bring any legal action against Functional Nutriments, LLC in the US Courts of the State of Hawaii.
