One Stop has teamed up with Snappy Shopper to offer a rapid delivery service in a bid to enhance customer experience and boost sales.
Snappy Shopper will be introduced in 250 initial stores from June, following a successful trial period last year.
The pair said the move comes as the UK’s quick commerce market presents a lucrative opportunity, with major delivery players reaching 69% of the UK population.
The collaboration looks to leverage this market potential, particularly within the convenience grocery retail sector to drive mutual growth and expansion.

One Stop head of online Tim Josephs said: “Providing an easy shopping experience for our customers is extremely important to us, so we’re thrilled to be partnering with Snappy Shopper.
“Customers will be able to have great quality products, at great prices on their doorstep within minutes. We look forward to offering the Snappy Shopper service to both our existing loyal customers and new customers across the country.”
The partnership with One Stop also marks Snappy Shopper’s first national retail rollout, which CEO Mike Callachan said is a “great milestone” for the business.
He added: “One Stop choosing us shows the recognition of Snappy Shopper both in the marketplace and for our white label business.
“We see One Stop as a retail partner that shares our values – its business model focuses on serving customers and their communities, providing convenience and accessibility.”
Last month, Co-op also partnered with Snappy Shopper to trial rapid local store-to-door deliveries in Northern Ireland.
The trial, which initially launched from the convenience retailer’s store in Shankill Road, Belfast, will now be extended to its store in Kings Road, Gilnahirk.
