Morrisons and Deliveroo add alcohol to range

FROM the weekend, Morrisons and Deliveroo are offering a greater range delivered to your doorstep that will for the first time include beer and wine.

Red and white wine, beer and lager will be available to customers at the same price as Morrisons supermarkets on the Deliveroo app.

Two weeks ago, Morrisons and Deliveroo announced a partnership to enable customers to order essential household items from Morrisons stores to be delivered to their door, on-demand, by a Deliveroo rider in as little as under 30 minutes.

The Morrisons range on Deliveroo will expand from 75 to 110 items and will now include more spring and summer foods such as fish fillets, British beef burgers, fruits and salads, along with a wider number of household essentials including washing detergent.

Joseph Sutton, online director at Morrisons, said: “When we listen to customers during the lockdown they would like us to supply more treats for the emerging summer and the longer days.

“We are continuing to play our full part in feeding the nation and our partnership with Deliveroo is proving a popular way for customers to receive their food and drink.”

Ajay Lakhwani, vice president of new business at Deliveroo, said: “We are pleased to play our role in making sure households have access to everything they need and want as they keep safe at home.

“The expansion of the Morrisons range on Deliveroo is great news for our customers across the country, who can now enjoy an even wider selection of delicious food and drink, straight to their doorstep in under 30 minutes.”

The Morrisons-Deliveroo service is available from more than 130 Morrisons stores across the UK and covers one in four households (6.8 million).

Customers can order on the Deliveroo app or website, as normal, from a selection of items that include meat and Quorn, fruit and household essentials.

The items are picked at the local Morrisons store and delivered by a Deliveroo rider in as little as under 30 minutes. Customer ordering hours are also being extended for the majority of Morrisons Deliveroo stores until 9.30pm.

In an effort to ensure that customers can access essential items at affordable prices during the Covid-19 pandemic, items are priced the same as Morrisons stores and there is a flat £4.99 delivery fee (unless customers have the Deliveroo Plus service).
