Sainsbury’s expands Chop Chop delivery service to 20 UK cities

Supermarket joins up with courier firm Stuart to make deliveries to homes using bikes

Sainsbury’s is taking a bicycle delivery service to 20 cities across the UK in its latest effort to extend grocery home delivery during the coronavirus outbreak.

The supermarket is joining up with courier firm Stuart, part of DPD Group, to launch its one-hour delivery product, Chop Chop, in Brighton and Bristol on Thursday with Manchester and Reading to follow.

By mid-June, 50 stores will offer the service, which is also extending from central London into suburbs including Charlton, Haringey, Morden and Richmond. The company said this would enable one-hour deliveries to 3.2m households.
