Shopzed Zambia help? Cancel Se requiere un título

Hello everybody! I am recently a new sponsor and I'm really interested in sending stuff to my kid in Zambia. I read some forums and heard of shopzed!
Any tips on using the website?
Where should I send the package to? 
What address do I use? 

Thanks!

Hello
I've used shopzed a few times first you should contact CI for the address so it's sent to the right center. I always buy rice, beans, mealie meal.and usually sent a treat of some sort like cookies. They are very helpful if you need help ordering.

How do you know if the package is received ?

You will get an email that it was delivered

@svillaro788: Just so there is not confusion, the e-mail will not come from CI. Once the package had been delivered to the CI central office (the address you used to send it), the staff will transfer the package to the child's community center. The staff will then contact the child's family and arrange for a date convenient for the family to come to the community center to pick up the package, take photos and write a thank you letter.  This usually happens within a couple of weeks of the package arriving at the central office. 

Shopzed is great. They’ve gone above and beyond helping me get items to the kids I sponsor and have helped me with other purchases I wanted to make for some students I met while I was in Zambia earlier this year. Very professional and completely trustworthy.

Thank you everyone for all the help. I did contact CL first before inquiring in shopzed. I also just emailed them about my order and they do respond extremely fast! Wow! Very excited for Shirah (my sponsor kid) to receive all her goodies now! 

Has anyone used shopzed recently? What was the website used? The websites I found have been inactivated or something. Thanks!

Try this link:
https://fresh.shopzed.com 

Thanks!

Shopzed's new Fresh website seems to have some technical difficulties when trying to view available products browsing page by page. I've found I can seem to find what I want if I type the name of the item into the search bar at the top. 

Shopzed is totally awesome. Have ordered through them a couple times and both times they were amazing. Victoria the founder even contacting me personally when my order was having problems. 

They are so awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi there!

I'm a new sponsor and I'm curious about this Shopzed site! Do I need to contact CI before placing an order with Shopzed?

Thank You,
Divina

I was looking to send a package to my boy Abel another care package like I did last year. But shopzed.com , fresh.shopzed.com , and market.shopzed.com are all not working. Is there some other or up to date way to get a care package sent over? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!~

Hello Mandrake,
Please keep in mind the new direct package guidelines. If you are unaware of the updates, please contact the Care Team via phone, chat or email. 

Thank you for the advice! I went ahead and purchased an Extra Gift for Abel, I hope he gets what I asked for so I can add that personal touch to his gift. :D

Did shopzed shut down? anyone know how to send a package to a child in Zambia?

I would try this email and see if you can order by email or phone.  They may still have the Children International package just no website.   shopzed@shopzed.com 

I am trying to look up the shopzed site (Zambia) . I tried the link suggested here, and I tried several others. It could not be found, or there was some sort of warning message. Is there a "most current" name of the site?  (Or maybe I am having computer problems?)  Thank you for your help.

Because I sponsor nine in Lusaka, Zambia, I was interested in local sources for direct packages of food and books ( like shopzed   and bookworld zambia ) But nothing worked out.  The grocery and bookstore websites in Lusaka went down or disappeared or didn't answer my emails or didn't acknowledge my orders -- the situation is/was extremely discouraging and off-putting.  But I am happy to tell you, you can maximize your CI EG's ( Children International Extra monetary Gifts ) which will cost you less in processing fees, less in delivery fees, and be safe and efficient.  When you give an EG of over $100 you can state preferences to be addressed, for instance, I state that I want the child/teen to buy a book. ( I am always pushing reading and education )  Done.  CI makes it happen.  I say that with confidence because when you send an EG over $100, you will receive a list of what was purchased and photos!  I mean it, photos of what your money bought -- and a thank you letter from your sponsored child/teen. I have photos of my sponsored teens holding books I bought them! (I love that)
