Is there a way to add processing times to individual products?

Is there a way to add processing times to individual products? I have a couple of products that take 1-2 weeks to dispatch but when the customer checks out its says 2-4 days delivery and they think they are receiving it in 2-4 days. I have it written in description, but most don't read descriptions so its getting missed.

Do you need to do that for quite a lot of products or can it be done manually? 

[Tan2020]

Its only 3 products so can be done manually.

Then it will work with metafields. You know how to display metafields content in the frontend?

[Tan2020]

No I've never heard of that? Is it easy to do?

[MOISCHKOWITZ]

Well it has to be done in the code. For me it is relatively easy. I have done it many times.

Would you mind telling me how to do it please?

Hi @Tan2020 

You can add this in the shipping settings for the particular products that take time to process as special fields called Metafields. You can create the meta field definition in your shipping settings and use any third-party app to send the data to your Google Merchant center.

You can also try using the app Nabu for Google Shopping Feed, which can help you send your shopping feed to the Google merchant center and update it automatically. 

Hope this helps
