Posted by Hey all! Today I would like to introduce you to a new E-commerce platform – Ochama where you can buy your groceries and many other things such as household, Asian snacks, beauty products, and your normal grocery stuff!
Before we get started, if you create an account, make sure you use my invitation code linjiang to get 2 vouchers which are worth 15 euros!
What is Ochama and why do I recommend it?
Ochama is a brand from a very successful E-commerce vendor (Jingdong) in China, they are now expanding to the European market. I have been using it for groceries for a few months, and I really love it! The reasons are:
- They offer products from local markets and also world (such as Asian and Turkish) markets ), so I don’t need to go to different stores, and the products are of good quality, and the veggies are very fresh.
2. Their price is very very competitive, the vegetables are much cheaper than in normal supermarkets
Here are some examples:
On Ochama:
On website of Albert Heijn
3. They are giving ridiculous discounts on the platform, many 1+1 for free, or 10 euros for 3 deals
4. They offer delivery and free pickups, the pickup points are small businesses in collaboration with Ochama, so they are expanding very quickly, it might be there is one for you just around the corner!
5. The pickup experience is very good, the system sends you a QR code per order, but you only need to present one of them at the pickup point, and then they can find all your orders.
6. The aftersales service is also very good, if you want to return or get a refund due to any issues, you just need one click on the app!
The only downside is that the popular products/good deals are easily sold out, so make sure you order fast, it happened to me multiple times that products in my shopping cart got sold out so I had to come back.
How to get started?
To get started, you just need to download the Ochama app on your phone, or go to their website and create your account (don’t forget to fill in the invitation code linjiang to receive vouchers).
What products do I recommend?
Feel free to discover all the products on the platform, among all the products I’d like to recommend 2 items today.
- The nonsticky Wok pan
Currently, my parents are visiting us, and my father-in-law who is in charge of the kitchen often complains that our wok pan is too small, so I got him this one. It seems this wok pan is very fast to heat up, and you don’t need lots of oil as it is non-sticky!
If you use the 10 euro voucher, then you can get it with 19.9 euros!
2. The Silen toilet paper with a ridiculous discount! Make sure you add something so you can use the vouchers!
3. And of course all the household cleaning product which offers 3 items for 10 euros or buy 5 get 50% off, remember, combination possible and acculatation possible with newcomer vouchers!
I hope you give it a try and let me know your thoughts about the experiences!
