Information provided by various external sources

GermanShop24 is a family owned business and was founded in 2007 by Stefan Kuehnert - originally as a hobby. We started selling over the internet in September 2007 after setting up the very first version of our online shop. The assortment back then was just about 250 products, but still we got in the first order just 2 days after the initial launch. During the following months, orders slightly increased to 5-6 orders per week and there was not much progress in 2008. In 2009 Katrin Kuehnert joined the team and we started to expand our assortment. At the end of 2009 we offered about 2000 different items - all available to be ordered. Orders also went up in 2009 to about 30 per week. In the years between 2010 and 2015 we nearly doubled our revenue each year and we now have a yearly sales volume of about $1.5 Million making us one of the leading online shops for German food world wide, even though we are specialized in shipping to the US. In 2015 we expended our business and now serving wholesalers in different countries including the US and China. We offer air and sea freight service for wholesalers and take care about fulfilling all legal requirements for the destination countries.

I placed an order in February and they…

I placed an order in February and they were unable to deliver due to customs issues. They stated they would refund but even 6 weeks after placing the order I had not received a refund. They stated that they now had a US shipping location and they offered for me to get a stare credit to order from that location. They however did not mention that the US location had less than 1/3 of the items I ordered initially. Once I identified this I asked for a refund and they never replied. As such, this is a fraudulent company that cannot be trusted - giving excuses for a refund to take 6 weeks is unacceptable in the first place (no other company takes this long if they cannot deliver), and then stating I could use a store credit to order from the US store even though they knew exactly that most of the items that I had initially ordered were not available there is definite fraud.

Never received my order

Never received my order, asked for a refund, got a response acknowledging delays. I asked to cancel but never heard back and never saw the ~$130 again. I placed the order almost two months ago. Order at your own risk.

Prompt shipping and delivery. Package arrived in great condition

Can't say enough! Could not find the potato dumpling mix here in the USA.
Ordered from Germanshop24 and received them within about a week to 10 days. So happy.
Everything was packaged nicely and I received it in good condition.
Our family will be able to enjoy a long standing tradition of Sourbraten for Christmas just like Omi used to make
Thank you again.

As no one has replied to my order…

As no one has replied to my order number, I am doing a review with the information again. In hope that someone will reply to my disappointing order due to unexpected high cost.
5 packets Super Dickmans had a shipping cost of $30.99 US (43.20 Canadian), than on top of that there was a Custom Cost of $24.65 Canadian. So the product itself plus the shipping delivery cost $105.97.
order 115540 I have receipts of shipping and custom charges. In case the Germanshop24 misplaced me as a customer.

I can highly recommend GermanShop24

I can highly recommend GermanShop24. Fast delivery, well packed, and even some extra goody included. I always order enough so I don't have to pay the shipping cost. For sure my website to order my items from Germany to make me and my family happy. I love that I can buy German Magazines to keep up with my German reading and new recipes to try out.

Some of the best customer service I've had online

I've been using this site for years to get Haribo gummies, without all the suspect ingredients they put in them for the United States formulations. I've never had anything but positive interactions with their customer service team, their product selection, or their shipping. Just an all around excellent experience. This is probably my tenth time ordering from them, and still no complaints.

Germanshop.24 like the shop around the corner,good job thank you

I ordered a few times and am always very satified with the service. The package arrived on the estimated time and was carefully packed,no damage.All items are with a long expiration date,and have not lost their freshness. Since I live on the other side of Germany, I am so grateful to have found goodies from my childhood. The prices and shipping cost are reasonable.Have to wait until Autumn for my next order, too hot and humid here, but I will order as soon as the weather makes it possible.

Excellent service at prices about 20% lower than Amazon or more. I was excited to find high quality German flour and half baked brotchen which are next to impossible to find in California. The parcel arrived in a couple days and couldn’t be happier. Thank you!

The Package arrived today, quick and everything was well wrapped. It’s easy to order and the prices are fair. Shipping cost reasonable and well worth it. The Brötchen and the wonderful Bread will be on our breakfast table tomorrow morning.
Will definitely order again.

AMAZING experience!

I couldn't believe how FAST our order got here! FROM GERMANY! Incredible! It was 3 days from the order date! I didn't even know that was possible! This is a great shop! Great communication, prompt shipping (LIGHTNING SPEED!), just great overall! If you miss your German products, this is definitely a great option! And the shipping is totally reasonable! I don't know how they do it!

Excellent Customer Service

I placed an order on May 19, 2025. The next day I realized that I had given the wrong delivery address and send an email to that effect. A couple of hours later I got a phone call from a very helpful gentleman. We got the problem solved. I received my order approximately one week later. I was impressed with the help I got, my order and the delivery date. Thank you again. I will order again.
