A well organised website, everything as stated, no problems at all with my purchase.
Delivery Wait times are minimal and thats good plus supporting a kiwi business it feels good
Shopping with Buy Kiwi has been brilliant. I've bought a mini trampoline (rebounder) and a geriatric raised toilet seat/support for my mother. Each time it has been easy to shop, find the products, they have a large selection of products. I feel safe buying through Buy Kiwi and the delivery is always quick, products arive on time and in perfect condition. They communicate well with us and the whole process iseasy , they deliver!
I highly recommend Buy Kiwi, affordable prices, huge range of products and we aresupporting our fellow country people!
Awsome to deal and fast delivery, will buy again ❤️❤️AAA++ highly recommend
This was the first time I have purchased anything from Buy Kiwi and I was not only happy with the experience but glad to be supporting a Kiwi owned business. I will definitely be looking at their inventory if I am shopping for products in the future.
EASY PURCHASE, NO DOUBT! AFTER SERVICE - BLOODY MAGNIFICIENT! They sort it out within a day or two. Maybe 30-60% cheaper than any other retailers BUT their after purchase services were outstanding!
Product arrived quickly after ordering. Prefer to deal with New Zealand companies but it would be even better if the products were all made in our beautiful country. We used to be self-sufficient and these current times tell us we should be producing more ourselves. Will have no hesitation in buying from Buy Kiwi again.
Great first shop with Buy Kiwi. Hopefully there are many more. Went smoothly and hassle free 🙂
I can only say you are awsome, delivered in no time at all. Many thanks. Richard.
Why Buying Kiwi is Important for New Zealand:
Every year, billions of our hard-earned dollars are mistakenly sent to overseas owned/based companies using .co.nz websites that create a perception they are Kiwi-owned, when they are not.
In 2024, over 1,000 kiwis participated in our market research and 84% of us stated we have been duped by overseas-owned businesses masquerading behind .co.nz websites while 98% of us prefer to purchase from NZ-owned businesses when price and product are equal.
Consciously diverting some of our spending away from these overseas companies to Kiwi-owned businesses has significant benefits for our economy, employment, our local communities & our future as a country.
If each of us could divert just $50 per week of spending to Kiwi-owned businesses, it would result in more than 5 billion dollars annually remaining in the New Zealand economy with significant benefits across the board.
According to checks on New Zealand Companies Office website, examples of foreign-owned companies that many of us mistakenly think are Kiwi-owned are TradeMe, Mighty Ape and Dick Smith.
What About Imported Goods?
The fact is New Zealand does not produce all of the good and/or services we need or want to purchase. Examples such as iPhones, TV’s, Washing Machines, Motor Vehicles, Laptops, Personal Computer and many more.
Given this very real situation, our position is wherever possible we should purchase imported goods from Kiwi owned businesses to minimise the amount of New Zealand dollars being sent overseas and to maximise the benefits of helping Kiwi businesses thrive.
Hence, some imported goods and/ or services are listed on Buy Kiwi, only if they are sourced and supplied by a Kiwi-owned business.
When you buy imported goods from a Kiwi-owned business, not only are you helping to keep more of your hard-earned dollars in New Zealand, you are ensuring you are protected as a consumer by New Zealand laws such as the Consumer Guarantees Act & The Fair Trading Practices Act.
Our Buy Kiwi platform gives you 100% confidence you are buying from kiwi-owned businesses, not some overseas company masquerading under a .co.nz website.
Unlike TradeMe (Overseas Owned), Amazon (Overseas Owned), Temu (Overseas Owned), Mighty Ape and many other online marketplaces, Buy Kiwi is 100% Kiwi with only Kiwi-owned businesses selling on Buy Kiwi.
We firmly believe “Together, We Are Stronger” and our ability to confidently make conscious decisions about where we spend our hard-earned dollars is important for the prosperity of New Zealand.
At Buy Kiwi, you can have total confidence you are dealing with Kiwi-owned businesses committed to sourcing and supplying quality products that are held in stock in New Zealand ready for prompt delivery across the country.
Shop Smart. Shop Securely. Shop Buy Kiwi.
