That exact name is not a recognized drug in any country that I can find. Zopimax appears to be a very rare name used only in a handful of African countries for zopiclone.

That's the closest match I can find and the websites listing it are somewhat questionable for accuracy. One is a listing of import/exports of India and includes 2 shipments of "ZOPIMAX ZOPICLONE TAB 7.5mg" from Nigeria. The other is a pharmacy in Lagos, Nigeria that not all of it is in English but it lists "ZOPIMAX ZOPICLONE TAB 7.5MG KORLYNS" as a product.

With covid interrupting supplies it's possible some really obscure small company brands might end up getting shipped places they normally wouldn't. If you have a package or prescription bottle with the brand name on it then it should also say the chemical name somewhere.

Otherwise the 2 closest med names that come up as alternatives in searches are topamax and zmax.

Topamax is an anticonvulsant sometimes used off label for bipolar. Anticonvulsants can often be useful as mild, long term insomnia treatments.

Zmax and a few variations are sometimes different brand names or shorthand references to azithromyacin. An antibiotic that has unique effects on the immune system so is sometimes used for other purposes besides bacterial infections.
