The partnership dubbed EcoShopper will help people overcome hurdles in buying groceries for their relatives, especially those in rural areas.

According to Natalie Jabangwe, an EcoCash executive, this service is the very first of its kind in Africa. The service is backed by an Ecoshopper application that is already available on Google Play and which will also go live on Apple Store in two weekstime.

The EcoShopper service has various basket options ranging from $20 to $150. A representative from National Foods said the new arrangement will add value to mobile money users and grocery purchasers.

Recipients of the groceries receive a text message on their mobile phones and take it to any National Foods depot across the country to access the groceries send by their relatives.

“The sender is charged the same tariff for the amount as when sending money. There is no collection fee for those receiving the groceries,” she said.
