I really regret buying from this shop. I wish I had read reviews prior to my purchase. I got inecto blonde hair colour, I had doubts mixing it but for some reason I did apply it to my hair tips. The color never developed and I washed it off after 30 minutes. I get worried wondering what exactly have I applied to my precious hair. Scanner shop this

My order had missing items and I emailed them. Bruno Nhongo said he will look into it. I waited a couple of days...heard nothing. I emailed again and my emails were no longer going through. I texted the number, no response. I am highly disappointed and will NEVER ever use this company. I didn't even want a refund. I just wanted the items that were missing. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM

Extremely poor service — avoid Zimfoods


Extremely poor service — avoid Zimfoods Limited

I ordered two clay pots from Zimfoods Limited, and both arrived broken. I also ordered a wooden plate, which was broken when it arrived.

I contacted the company several times through WhatsApp, but every message has been ignored. They have made no attempt to respond, replace the damaged goods, or provide a refund.

Taking payment, sending broken products and then ignoring the customer is completely unacceptable. Based on my experience, I would not trust this company or recommend ordering from them. Avoid unless you are prepared to lose your money.

Terrible company

Terrible company! They sent my stuff to the wrong address and I emailed asking them to send me the item to my address and still no response. Can you imagine?! It's been almost a month now.

I wish I had come here before ordering

I wish I had come here before ordering. They sell chimera vachinyeba kuti sadza rezviyo. They gave me the wrong freezits and my maputi were not delivered. If you buy here then I don’t know what else do you want.
My order number is Order # 26123 to prove I have bought from them.

Worst customer service selling online without sufficient stock

Even 1 star is too good for this company. My recent experience with Zimfoods was extremely disappointing and frustrating. I ordered two bottles of Sper Apeti Plus Syrup, largely to justify a very high £38 shipping fee, bringing my total to £65.98. Although I received confirmation emails and even a WhatsApp message to verify my address—giving the impression that everything was in order—only one bottle was delivered on 8 April. When I reached out, communication was slow and inconsistent; after multiple attempts, I was eventually told the second item was out of stock and would be refunded, but no consideration was given to the disproportionate shipping cost I incurred as a result. At no point prior to delivery was I informed of any stock issues or given the option to amend or cancel my order. The website allowed me to purchase unavailable items, and customer support failed to respond adequately to my follow-ups. Overall, the lack of transparency, poor communication, and refusal to fairly address the situation have left me with a very negative impression, and I would not recommend this service to others.

If l could give a zero star l would

If l could give a zero star l would! I made a mistake to order from them, for a recipient in Zimbabwe. As their depot is in Harare, the hamper had to ne couriered to Bulawayo. I asked the guy that l was dealing with; if the meat products will still be fresh by the time the hamper gets to Bulawayo. He reassured me that all was in order as the meat products were frozen. I was charged an extra £30 for shipping cost.

When the hamper reached Bulawayo, their office called and also messaged the recipient. That they were unable to deliver - although their office is 10 streets away. When the recipient arrived to collect the hamper; the office had a pungent smell. Which was the meat as it had become spoilt enroute from Harare. Also, there was some staff missing in the hamper. Bruno, the guy who l was liaising with, apologised and said that the management said as they did not have control over the conditions during transportation they were unable to help.

This is just a warning to anyone who wants to give custom to this company. I made/paid for the order on 06/12/2025 and the hamper was only delivered in Bulawayo on 11/12/25. They do not have any customer service values and dealing with them is at your own risk!!

Scammers

Worst experience, bunch of SCAMMERS to say the least. My husband placed an order must be over a month ago now, 2-3 days delivery turned to weeks, contact them on WhatsApp they don’t respond, kept asking us to chase up Evri. We have requested a refund multiple times no avail. I will be reporting this business to Trading Standards and the ombudsman. Never again!

Don't buy

Don't buy, avoid at all cost, I wish there was a -5 on these reviews. I placed an order 4 weeks ago, 4 weeks later I have not received anything yet the order should have arrived within 3 days. I call them to get help there is no answer, I message them and they tell me to chase up with courier but courier says if its been more than 7 days the sender is the one who needs to get in touch so I hit a brick wall. I asked for a full refund, they are telling me they cant refund me. One thing I know, its gona haunt them, they will not get away with this. How could they get any update or info 4 weeks later from any courier as they don't have an answer for me upto now. I will continue to send an update in the coming weeks. Wrongtarget

POOR POOR SERVICES

Firstly, their WhatsApp message service, they ask what you would like to order,19th August, and absolutely no reply until today 26 August, I eventually placed a order online at Zimfoods,on 19th, and haven't received my order as yet. Service delivery is absolutely disgusting, to say the least. Why have a Business WhatsApp, if you don't attend to messages, and it shows you are online EVERYDAY, and different times.

Ordered from this company and received very bad customer service customer service

Ordered from this company and first of all order was delivered to the wrong address. Eventually parcel was delivered nearly two weeks later. One of the cerevita was the wrong flavour, the nyii was dry and masau was so bitter. I attempted to get a replacement for the cerevita at least or refund and they ignored me when l asked for a return postage label to return the cerevita as they had requested. Bad customer service unfortunately. I managed to get my money back through a bank despute as l used a credit card to pay. Never again 😒
