Co-op is aiming to account for 30% of the quick-convenience online grocery market.

The Manchester-based retailer has now expanded its partnership with Just Eat to around 1000 stores.

It believes that by the end of the year, more than 80% of the UK population will be able to access Co-op groceries online through its own ecommerce store and via partners.

“Co-op is combining its physical and digital routes to market stores to further expand and grow its online reach. With our stores located in the heart of local communities, closer to where our Members and customers live and work – we continually look to create increased flexible options online,” explained Chris Conway, eCommerce Director, Co-op.

“Our partnership with Just Eat continues to go from strength to strength, enabling Co-op to deliver further online choice with increased ease, speed and convenience, whenever and wherever our members and customers choose to shop with us.”

Last year, Co-op grew its online revenues by 24%.

“Our partnership offers convenience grocery delivery from store to door across the UK – bringing access to a wide range of fantastic Co-op products which are delivered to our customers homes within minutes,” added Amy Heather, Strategic Accounts Director, Just Eat UK.

“This partnership is another example of Just Eat’s commitment to grocery in the UK and Co-op is proving to be a popular addition for our customers.”

Co-op also has partnerships with Deliveroo, Uber Eats, Amazon Prime, plus its autonomous robot deliveries through Starship Technologies.
