How should I store the pickles?

Since our pickles come in packets, we encourage clients to open them up and refrigerate them. Most of our pickles will be okay for upto 6-8 months if stored well away from sunlight, heat or moisture. However, they may discolour due to the lack of preservatives so we highly recommend refrigeration in two weeks of receiving them.
