Southern Co-op now offering rapid home delivery service

Southern Co-op has launched the scheme in Hampshire through a new partnership with Snappy Shopper, with Southsea, Portsmouth, and Southampton among the first areas to benefit.

The service offers delivery in as little as 30 to 40 minutes.

Anuj Christi, head of store operations at Southern Co-op, said: "Our stores are at the heart of the communities they serve, and this is about making it even easier for customers to access them in a way that fits around their day.

"Whether it’s helping someone who can’t easily get to the shop or simply saving time for busy households, this service builds on the different ways people can shop with us while keeping that important local connection."

Customers within a two-mile radius of participating stores can order a wide range of groceries, including fresh food and everyday essentials, all picked in-store by local colleagues.

The delivery radius is expected to expand over the coming months.

To mark the launch, new customers can receive £7 off their first two Southern Co-op orders on Snappy Shopper.

Existing customers can enjoy free delivery on orders over £35.
