Sainsbury’s extends one-hour delivery to more London postcodes
Following a trial in its Pimlico and Wandsworth stores, Sainsbury’s is rolling out its Chop Chop one-hour delivery service to customers across London’s Zone 1 and 2.
Sainsbury’s was the first UK supermarket to trial an on-demand, one hour, grocery delivery service last year. It will now extend the trial by adding over 70,000 more postcodes to the service catchment area. This will take its total reach to over 1.7 million customers.
Through Chop Chop customers can order up to 25 items from Sainsbury’s via an IOS or Android app and have them delivered by cycle or moped within one hour, for a flat fee of £4.99.
Shoppers who order via the app within store opening hours are able to receive their groceries within an hour on the same day, depending on slot availability. The service is open to shoppers seven days a week at all participating stores.
Clodagh Moriarty, director of online at Sainsbury’s, said:“We’re delighted the trial of our Chop Chop delivery service in Wandsworth and Pimlico has proven to be such a success.
“We were the first UK supermarket to introduce one-hour delivery last year and this roll-out will give us the largest reach to shoppers across London. It’s an exciting time for our customers and we hope to see continued success of Chop Chop within these new boroughs.”
Chop Chop is now available in all or parts of Barnet, Brent, Camden, City of London, Ealing, Hackney, Hammersmith & Fulham, Islington, Kensington & Chelsea, Lambeth, Merton, Southwark, Tower Hamlets, Wandsworth and Westminster.
