Waitrose and Deliveroo have announced that they are expanding their partnership by adding more than 70 new Waitrose locations by the summer.
This next phase of expansion means Waitrose will be available for the first time on Deliveroo in almost 30 new towns and cities, including Lewes, Cirencester and Newark, where the service will be live from today. It comes only a year after the partnership was rolled out to 150 Waitrose shops following a successful trial of just five sites in 2020.
Deliveroo customers will be able to order from up to 1,000 products from Waitrose.
James Bailey, Executive Director, Waitrose, said:
“Our partnership with Deliveroo shows the strong demand for Waitrose products and that this is one of the ways our customers want to shop with us. People's plans change and the service ensures we are even more flexible around our customer's lifestyle, giving them more freedom to be more spontaneous about what they eat or drink and when.”
Carlo Mocci, Chief Business Officer UK&I, Deliveroo, said:
“It’s fantastic to be able to build further on our successful and long standing partnership with Waitrose, one of Britain’s best-loved brands. By expanding into these new locations, it will give our customers a greater choice of on-demand groceries and household essentials that can be delivered to their doors in as little as 20 minutes.”
