These people messed up my orders so many times, they kept sending the wrong stuff. They owe me over £20, been trying to order and now I see they have closed down.

Excellent and professional service

I first knew of Oja through Instagram and was excited… African foods delivered to your door… wow! (This is just what I’ve been wanting). I ordered a few things with the discount code and was so impressed. I ordered on Thursday and my delivery came on Saturday the same week. Everything was packaged neatly and I communicated with Oja beforehand. They were always professional and answered all my questions. I will definitely be ordering again! Thank you

Great service 9.5 out of 10

Website was very easy to use. Most but not all african products I usually buy were in stock. I loved that I was able to pay with Gpay instead of having to look for card details which can be inconvenient. Quick response from customer service team and fast and efficient and very professional delivery. All in all great service will definitely order from them again. However I did feel the tilapia fish was a bit more expensive compared to what I would usually buy in the market but this being way more convenient I definitely overlook.

Amazing app . Wish I thought of it first…

I got recommended the app by a friend and tried it out . It was really good . What made me like it was the prices they are so competitive and by “competitive “ I mean cheaper than Walthamstow market where I usually shop. The meat was fresh , the food was well packaged and the delivery was on time

Don’t think about it place your order!

So glad I found this! No more busy markets and carrying heavy shopping! Great range of products, that are competitively priced. Well packed for delivery and meat products can go straight into your freezer.. They use DPD so you can track your order through the APP. Also good aftercare with staff who are willing to answer any questions you might have. Give them a try you won’t be disappointed.

EXCELLENT PRODUCTS AND CUSTOMER SERVICE

Last December, my niece introduced me to Oja and their 1p promotion. I was a bit skeptical knowing how much African foods costs expensive in UK. I asked her to place the order for me which she did. When I received my order, I was overwhelmed, well packaged and very clean specially the gizzards which takes time to clean.
So last Friday when I heard of the promotion again, before I could even placed my own order, I posted the advert on my WhatsApp status and all those who placed their order were very happy and grateful to me.
My order arrived with two missing items. When I contacted their customer service, the response was exceptional and excellent. I received twice my order. OMG! What a great service and the pleasure. Well done Oja! Keep it up! May your business flourish!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Quality Packaging, customer service and ingredients

Food packaging is on point, and the ingredients are always fresh. They also give you the option to have your poultry and seafood cleaned and cut, and a Contact line where you can raise any questions too. Great service!

Fresh produce, quick delivery!

I absolutely love Oja!

Every time I have ordered from them, the produce that was delivered to me was packaged well and they were so fresh! I don't have to worry about running around to get my African groceries and that is what I love most about shopping with them. Everything was delivered on time as well, so I 100% recommend Oja.

A fantastic Online Shop for African Food.

Oja is the solution I have always wanted as a busy person, who craves food from my African heritage. They have a wide array of African/ethnic foodd to cater for any kind of dish you want to make.

Delivery is fast and their amazing online support is there to help cater to any queries you may have.

This is definitely a business I would be happy to buy from any day and I look forward to their growth all around the country and the world

Shopping for African Food has never been more enjoyable!

Oja has elevated the experience for me as an African living in London. Finding meat and plantain can often be stressful and hit and miss. Now I can go to the Oja website and my food comes within a day! It is clear the food has been packed with such care. You feel like you're unboxing a luxury package. I've told everyone who will listen to sign up. Excited to shop from them for years to come!

Essential tool for my family!

It has been a great experience ordering from OJA. I place my order easily using the website and i receive my order the next day. OJA stock a wide variety of excellent quality items, so i can always find what i need for that special family recipe. It takes the hassle out of going to different stores to shop for good quality meat and fruit and vegetables! OJA is definitely one of my essential tools now. I greatly recommend them!

Oja doing bits!

I honestly can’t recommend Oja enough! Always delivering fresh quality foods in a timely manner! You can find almost anything you want from a local west African shop on the Oja app! Such a convenient and easy way to shop!

Great products, Great Prices

A link kept popping up on my social media so I clicked on it and to my surprise was a site selling various cultural food supplies so I placed an order but was skeptical.
Order arrived as stated and in great condition wrapped and packaged in for safe delivery.
I have passed the link on to all my family and friends as well as helping my mum to place an order.
will definitely be ordering again.
