BFPO Shopping from soldiershop.co.uk

Added: (Tue Feb 06 2007)

Pressbox (Press Release) - February 2007 has seen the launch of a great new site for British service personnel and their families - www.soldiershop.co.uk.

Many of Britain�s high street retailers do not deliver their range of products to British Forces Post Office (BFPO) addresses. However there are many major retailers, such as Woolworths and Amazon, who can do.

In its exclusive �BFPO Shopping Directory� Soldiershop.co.uk has listed the internet retailers willing and able to send their items to BFPO addresses; enabling British forces personnel to place orders for products ranging from games and gadgets to sweets and toiletries - and have them delivered to themselves in theatre. Of course, friends and families of personnel posted overseas can also choose gifts and practical items to send their service person.

The site is a valuable source of information, for example listing items suitable and unsuitable to send to BFPO addresses, and offering hints and tips on how to get items to their recipients overseas as quickly as possible.

With its links to the latest worldwide news stories relating to the British Forces, and its extensive recommendations of gifts to send to loved ones left at home in the United Kingdom, Soldiershop.co.uk is already proving popular with personnel posted overseas. The site is well on the way to becoming the British Forces one-stop shop for BFPO shopping.
