Do I collect the money at the time the sale is made or on delivery?
Collection of money is your organizations option. It is our experience, however, that most fundraisers collect the money in advance, i.e. pre-pay. Post–pay is when your customers take orders, but collect either when picking up orders or after delivery has been made. In this situation your organization may have to wait for them to collect all the money before paying you.
Back to Top
What do I do once all orders and monies have been collected?
During the pre/post kick-off, your sales representative will discuss with you the timeline for your fundraiser. Part of this discussion will include how to handle the order forms and monies. You will be provided a pre-paid, pre-addressed DHL shipping label for the order forms.
Back to Top
When and how should I remit payment?
Unless other arrangements are made, payment is due upon receipt of invoice/delivery. Please send a cashier’s check, school check or business account check for the amount due (shown at the bottom of the invoice) to All American. A self addressed envelope will be included with your school paperwork.
Back to Top
When will I receive my order?
Orders will be tallied, boxed by student, and shipped back to your organization no later than 3 weeks from the time your order forms are received in our home office. Frozen food orders may take up to 4 weeks. You will receive a phone call from our shipping department the day your orders are shipped informing you of the approximate delivery date.

Do you charge for shipping?
Due to the rising cost of fuel, you will be accessed a $25.00 fuel surcharge. This will appear on your invoice. Back to Top How can I make the distribution easier? All of our products are prepacked, in a box, by individual seller, thus making the distribution process easy.

When should I begin distributing the products?
As soon as they arrive; students with large orders may need to call parents to come and pick them up. We recommend that the student or parent sign for their order upon receipt.

What do I do when my shipment arrives?
If your order arrives via freight, check the shipment closely before signing the bill of lading. Make sure there are no damages boxes, that the pallets are shrink wrapped, and that you have the correct number of pallets. If any problems are seen, notate those problems on the bill of lading before signing. Never blindly sign for any product without auditing it first. If your order is arriving UPS ground, let your office staff (if applicable) know of the pending shipment and to notify you upon delivery. A signature is not required for UPS ground shipments.

How are your frozen food products shipped?
Our frozen food is shipped on a refrigerated carrier. The product will arrive frozen and should be distributed the same day the shipment is received. If the product is not picked up by the student/parent at the end of the day, arrangements must be made to refrigerate the items. All American is not responsible for product not stored properly.
