UK convenience retailer Co-op member reports that price savings are now available via Deliveroo
Co-op is now offering the same member price benefits for online orders via Deliveroo as in-store.
This has been introduced across approaching 100 key lines and everyday essentials, with savings of up to 28%, and on average almost 20%.
Co-op started the year with a new ad campaign showing how its members will always get lower prices on the items they buy the most. Around 1,300 of its stores act as local fulfilment hubs in the community for online orders placed via Deliveroo. Member-owners shopping via the platform need to add their membership number at the checkout.
Chris Conway, Co-op’s eCommerce Director, says: “Growing and innovating our online channels is a fundamental part of our convenience approach. As a co-operative, membership is what makes us different, and we work to create value for our member-owners who are at the very heart of our business.”
“We are committed to offering great value, deals and promotions for everyone to enjoy, along with a focus on providing savings to those who own our business, our members, with member price benefits across an extensive range and choice of everyday essentials online as well as in-store.”
Suzy McClintock, VP of New Verticals at Deliveroo, says: “We’re always looking for new and innovative ways to offer our customers a brilliant on-demand grocery service at great value. We're proud to partner with Co-op to make Member price savings available on nearly 100 key grocery lines including milk, chicken breasts and penne pasta, delivered straight to their door. This is another step in our mission to offer the best on-demand grocery experience for our customers.”
2025 RTIH INNOVATION AWARDS
On demand delivery will be a key focus area at the 2025 RTIH Innovation Awards.
The awards. which will open for entries in March, celebrate global tech innovation in a fast moving omnichannel world.
Our 2024 hall of fame entrants were revealed during an event which took place at RIBA’s 66 Portland Place HQ in Central London on 21st November, and consisted of a drinks reception, three course meal, and awards ceremony presided over by comedian Lucy Porter.
In his welcome speech, Scott Thompson, Founder and Editor, RTIH, said: “The event is now into its sixth year and what a journey it has been. The awards started life as an online only affair during the Covid outbreak, before launching as a small scale in real life event and growing year on year to the point where we’re now selling out this fine, historic venue.”
He added: “Congratulations to all of our finalists. Many submissions did not make it through to the final stage, and getting to this point is no mean feat. Checkout-free stores, automated supply chains, immersive experiences, on-demand delivery, next generation loyalty offerings, inclusive retail, green technology. We’ve got all the cool stuff covered this evening.”
“But just importantly we’ve got lots of great examples of companies taking innovative tech and making it usable in everyday operations - resulting in more efficiency and profitability in all areas.”
Congratulations to our 2024 winners, and a big thank you to our sponsors, judging panel, the legend that is Lucy Porter, and all those who attended November's gathering.
