Having lost its usual customer base of restaurants and pubs due to the coronavirus lockdown, food and drink wholesaler JJ Foodservice is continuing its push into the consumer market with the launch of a same-day home delivery service offering household essentials to Londoners.
Head of Operations at JJ Foodservice, Sedat Kaan Hendekli, said, “In addition to our next day delivery service, we are now excited to launch a same-day service. Orders placed between midnight and 11am, Monday to Friday, from our Enfield, Dagenham and Sidcup branches will be received on the same day. It’s the fastest we’ve ever delivered!”
Meanwhile, supermarkets are still advising that most food will need to be purchased in-store during the ongoing coronavirus epidemic. “Some supermarkets can only fulfil 10% of orders – we can fulfil 100% and now we can do it in record time”, added Kaan.
The group recently launched a new ‘Household Essentials’ category on its website, which features more than 300 grocery items reconfigured in smaller sizes for consumers.
