“What began as an emerging idea grew into a business of real scale – built by talented teams willing to test, learn and move at pace. I’m proud of what we achieved together, particularly in pushing established retail into faster, more agile territory.
“The experience reinforced for me that sustainable innovation comes from diverse thinking, strong customer focus and empowered teams.
“I’m now taking some time to recharge and reflect before considering my next chapter. Thank you to the many colleagues, partners and peers who were part of the journey.”
Co-op has been growing its quick commerce offering at pace in recent years. Last week, the retailer announced that it had introduced special price savings for its members on the Just Eat platform.
