Schools that order from us

We have supplied almost every international school in Kazakhstan. Among them:

  • Haileybury
  • Spectrum
  • Galaxy
  • Farabi
  • KIS
  • BIL
  • Quantum
  • and others

You send a list. We deliver the books.

Buying books from abroad means foreign payments, freight forwarders, customs brokers, and boxes that can arrive late or damaged. We take all of that off the school. You work with one supplier in Kazakhstan, and the books arrive at your door.

Why it is easier for schools

One supplier in Kazakhstan
A contract with a Kazakhstan company and payment in tenge. No foreign transfers.

Questions

What do you need from us to prepare a quote?

A list of titles with quantities. ISBNs help us find the exact edition, but if you don’t have them, titles and authors are enough. Any format works: Excel, PDF, Word or a photo.

Can you get a specific edition, or a book from another publisher?

Send us the title or ISBN. We’ll check whether we can get it and tell you the price and delivery date before you order.

Who is responsible if books arrive damaged or go missing?

We are. The risk is ours until the books are at your school. If something arrives damaged or short, we replace it at our cost.

Can parents buy just one or two books?

Yes. Message us on Instagram or WhatsApp with your child’s age and level of English, and we’ll help you choose.

Which publishers do you work with?

Oxford University Press, Cambridge University Press, Pearson, Macmillan, Usborne, Penguin Readers and others. If you need a different publisher, ask us.
