Click and collect at Sainsburys
Friday, June 03, 2011
Sainsbury’s has announced it is to increase its click & collect service to an extra 500 UK stores by the end of this year.
Currently 300 of the company’s outlets enable customers to pick up items ordered online from their premises and Keighley's store will join that number in July this year.
Helen Buck, Sainsbury’s Director of Convenience, commented: “Sainsbury’s growth is well documented and services such as Click & Collect will play an increasingly crucial role in this.
“Over a third of our non-food online sales come through Click & Collect and this exciting expansion will make it even easier to take advantage of the service.”
As a result of its recent expansion Sainsburys has successfully closed the gap on Asda in the race to become the UK’s second largest grocer.
Tanya Lawler, Sainsbury’s Director of Direct Channels, added: “Customers tell us they really value the ease of using click & collect.
“It means they get all of the benefits of shopping online – the ease of use, competitive prices and a wide range of products – but can pick up their items in a location convenient to them the next day.”
