About Cheap Chommie
Don't pay more, Chommie. That's the whole idea.
Who we are
Cheap Chommie is a Johannesburg-based online appliance store run by Noviq Online (Pty) Ltd, a South African e-commerce business that has been selling on Takealot and Amazon for years. We built Cheap Chommie because we kept seeing the same thing: everyday appliances marked up far beyond what they need to cost once they've passed through importers, distributors and marketplaces.
How we keep prices low
We import directly from the manufacturers of the Sokany and VGR ranges, in bulk, into our own Johannesburg warehouse. No middlemen, no marketplace commissions, no showroom overheads. That's why the same kettle, air fryer, hair trimmer or mixer is usually cheaper here than on the big marketplaces – and we show you the comparison on our Cheaper than Takealot collection.
What we sell
Over 400 products across kitchen appliances, home and cleaning, laundry, grooming and beauty. Sokany is one of the world's largest small-appliance manufacturers, producing for many household brands you already know; VGR is a specialist in professional-grade hair clippers and trimmers. Everything we stock is held in our own warehouse and ships from Johannesburg – we don't drop-ship.
