About Biashara Place
Biashara Place is finally here, a real powerhouse on matters online buying and selling in Kenya.
Why Biashara Place
All of us here at Biashara Place – our sellers and our staff – are committed to making shopping a more sustainable activity.
We are a consumer-driven culture, and it is unlikely this is going to change in a hurry, so we would like to drive consumers to more sustainable and responsible choices.
Here you can find many products to review and compare
No more trawling through 10 different websites to check prices or product listings to find out which one is the best fit for you.
Shop directly with the producers.
You are supporting (usually) small businesses that otherwise have less of a reach to get their name out there.
When you make your purchase, you do so from the individual seller. Have a look at what other things the seller has for sale as they will usually offer free delivery over a certain amount.
Each seller’s delivery charges will be clearly stated on their product listing
And again on your checkout page. Be sure to look out for our free delivery and discount codes that run from time to time.
Filter your shopping by geography
Because shopping local isn’t just for the high street. You can still support your local producers online. Look for the location filter on the left of your shopping page.
Delivery
As we are a marketplace, each supplier takes care of its own orders and sends your products directly to you.
Our sellers follow the delivery guide below and we ask them to make every effort to ensure their delivery prices and time frames are fair. We know you just want to get your hands on your new order!
Check out the other items from the seller you are ordering from – they may have some other products you are looking for and combining them will be more economical on postage. Many suppliers offer free standard delivery over a certain order amount.
Each product page will state the delivery options available to you under the Shipping and Returns tab. You will see the charges again in your basket and before you complete your purchase. By completing the sale, you are agreeing to those time frames.
Our suppliers are committed to keeping you informed, so you will receive a notification when they have shipped your order. If there are any issues, for example, if the product is going to be delivered outside of the specified time frames (and the supplier knows this), they will contact you.
Of course, sometimes certain events occur which are outside of the supplier’s control, but if you have any issues with the delivery of your order, please contact the supplier through the messaging service (“Ask A Question”) and chat with them about it. If you need any assistance, feel free to contact Biashara Place.
See the Returns and refunds policy for more info on refunds for late or non-delivery.
NOTE: WITH COVID-19, MANY SELLERS ARE MAKING FEWER TRIPS, PERHAPS TWICE A WEEK SO PLEASE EXPECT A SLIGHT DELAY TO THE USUAL TIME FRAMES
