Morrisons ‘Doorstep Delivery’ service reaches 100,000 order milestone
Morrisons has said its new telephone shopping service for vulnerable and elderly people has now reached the milestone of 100,000 orders.
The service is one of a number of measures the supermarket has introduced to help customers throughout the Covid-19 crisis.
Launched in April, it is also used by people who are self isolating and unable to go out shopping.
After placing their order over the phone, customers can have their shopping delivered the next day free of charge by staff from their local store.
David Potts, Morrisons chief executive, said: “The ‘Doorstep Delivery’ service has been a lifeline to many of our customers who can talk to an actual person and order their essential groceries. We are playing our full part in feeding the nation and ensuring those that are most in need can receive a delivery from Morrisons.”
Customers can choose from a menu of essential grocery items such as milk, butter, eggs, potatoes, pasta, bananas, cornflakes and flour. They can also request additional items that are essential to their household.
