4Patriots, LLC is an old-fashioned American success story. The company came to life at our kitchen table in Nashville, Tennessee with a notepad and pen. We had decided the soulless life of corporate America wasn’t for us, and that we wanted something more. We wanted to build something real; something that could really help people and provide real solutions to the problems that we, our families and our friends, encountered every day.Living on a shoestring budget, we used our savings to get started with our very first product, one that we knew could impact many people’s lives and get them on the road to greater self-reliance. We invested any profits we made right back into the company so we could continue to grow our business without borrowing a dime, and that’s how we continue to do business today.It might have taken us a little longer this way, but at the end of the day we’ve been able to build a thriving company that treats our customers and employees right.Today, not only do we offer a wide variety of great products that help our customers be more self-reliant and independent, but we’ve also been able to provide full-time jobs for over 200 people (and we’re still growing!). We feel blessed every day to work with such a dedicated team and to be able to impact the lives of so many people.At 4Patriots, we champion freedom and self-reliance. This is our core purpose and our mission.So how do we do it?We offer high-quality products that help our customers become more self-reliant and prepared.We follow the Golden Rule. Put simply, we treat our customers the way we would want to be treated.We strive to be a great place for great people to work.

not happy order 9047914
I’m just going to copy and paste my emails I sent today. I might get a quicker reply from them here that wait for a email response since you can’t reach them by phone. I wish I could download my pics I sent to them as well but I don’t see that option here.

Subject: Re: not happy order 9047914
I just received 2 shipments of the 3 month order. The first box had a broken handle which cut my finger when I took it out of the box. (See 1st picture below) The second box looked like it was dragged through a desert. Not only was the box messed up, the container was broken in a corner and is all full of dust like it was sitting in a warehouse for a very long time. Both boxes had the packages pour out when removed from the boxes. How would you like to fix this?

Now for the packaging of your products. This is from the dusty broken lid box. 2 of the rice packages have holes at the top/bottom. The other one, dinner bell bake is leaking. Next I will examine the contents of the box with a broken handle.

The broken handle box has 2 very hard star spangles tropical energy whereby the others were soft to feel. So that tells me that air must have gotten and hardened them. Another but very important issue is that I couldn’t find on package that showed an expiration date. How do I know when these were packaged? Every package had a dusty residue. Please respond to my concerns ASAP.

After being on hold for 2 hours, a recording verified my number and said someone would contact me. In that 2 hour hold time, I was able to go through your product and read complaints on Trust Pilot, many being the same as what I have experienced so far, with no resolution. And I not going to hold my breath waiting for a call back as I have also read that you don’t call back as your customer service is non existent. As a matter of fact, you have 53% 1 star ratings with a 2.4 out of 5 rating. If I had seen this earlier I would not have ordered. So with this kind of experience I do not want to do business with you and would like to restart a return process of my order. I was willing to let you make this right but your reputation is just terrible and makes you untrustworthy. Let me know on how to proceed please.

UPDATE 3/23
Here are emails from Kenny (a person with a conscious) and Thea (who may have fired Kenny for having one)
I’ll update again at the end of the month to let you know if there emails were actually honored. No news as of today. I’ll hold my breath for now.

Hello Duane,
Thank you for your response.
I completely understand your frustration. A two-hour hold time followed by an automated message is unacceptable, and it's disheartening to hear about the negative experiences you read on Trust Pilot. Let me help you with this matter to get things right.
I'm sorry to hear that some of the items came to you damaged. We apologize for the inconvenience. As we try our best to provide exceptional service, some factors like shipping and handling are outside of our control, and issues like this can happen. Let me just clarify all the damaged items before I proceed with the replacement.
Also, you’ll notice that some of our packages include a date, while others do not. We’ve begun using multiple facilities to create our delicious food, because demand is so high at the moment. And each has its own equipment and specific operating procedures, though the quality standards we demand never vary.
On some of the packages, you will see a date. It’s important to understand this is a “Best By” date, not an expiration. So for best results, always protect your food from heat, air and moisture. Avoid prolonged exposure to temps above 75 degrees F. And keep your food sealed until you’re ready to eat it. Shelf life will vary based on storage conditions.
And we back every 4Patriots survival food with an unconditional 100% guarantee. If within a year, you find despite following storage conditions you’re unsatisfied with the quality, taste – really, anything… we’ll replace it or return your purchase price, no questions asked.
Additionally, please accept %50 discount refund on your order as a token of apology for the inconvenience you experienced.
I apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience. Please let me know if I can assist you further. Have a great day!
Warm Regards,
Kenneth
3/26 UPDATE
Today we received 2 new totes along with 4 new bags of rice. Thank you Kristie. She also sent an email honoring Kenneth’s 50% discount, not the $50 discount that Thea had changed. Thank you for keeping your word and standing behind your product. Hence your new rating!

Hi Duane, thank you for your review and feedback. We apologize for the current hold times and we thank all of our customers for their understanding. Due to the current world events, it has caused a spike in demand for our products. We are working hard to fix the delay in service as it is not our typical standard. We are taking action to correct this and we appreciate your patience. We are not complacent, nor content, with the current hold times, and it will not be an issue in the future. I want to start by expressing my sincerest apologies for the trouble you’ve experienced. Please know that I truly understand your frustration. I will be more than happy to assist you. I have sent you an email from [email protected].
Best Regards,
Kristy B.

In response to a Frank Bates request
In response to a Frank Bates request, I would like to provide my positive review. I have found 4patriots to be very credible in their service supplying outstanding value and up to date products for those interested in preparing for natural and man-made disasters up to and including an EMP attack. Working with and attending weekly webinars hosted by Seth, Morgan and Shelby have helped immensely, offering encouragement and technical expertise on products and survival solutions in a multiplicity of potentially deadly scenarios. Having contact with those I engage on a weekly basis has resulted in very positive and collaborative relationships. Any issues related to initiating and servicing orders with this team have further enhanced this relationship resulting in a very helpful and educational environment.

Always on time and correct products delivered.
I have ordered multiple times these past few years. My orders have ALWAYS arrived in a timely manner and NEVER in bad condition.
I will continue to purchase emergency items from 4Patriots because they have quality products that will be the sustenance for my family in the event of catastrophic power failure or economic breakdown.
I just wish the Patriot Power Generator 2000X was in my price range. :)

Ready for small or large emergencies.
4Patriots is a company that is easy to use. People are very nice and polite when I called with questions. Great products from meat to dried fruits. Made several dishes and each delicious and very easy to make.
Love the payment plan for bigger items and kits. Have also bought things for kids which they appreciate.
