Naveo Commerce partner with The Co-op to Launch their First Dedicated Online Shop

The new service was kickstarted in central London – giving city goers first access to shop online and have their groceries delivered in less than two hours from placing their order.

Naveo Commerce, the Finnish creator of the award-winning Naveo Connected Commerce platform, and Co-op, the British convenience store operator and consumer co-operative, have announced a technology partnership, which has aimed at rolling out Co-op’s first dedicated online grocery shop and home delivery service.

The new service at https://shop.coop.co.uk was launched on March 22 2019, and customers in central London are the first to be able to shop for Co-op groceries online and have them home delivered in less than two hours.

Co-op’s new online service and ecommerce operations run on Naveo’s Connected Commerce platform, a software as a service (SaaS) product, designed to enable retailers to run and grow their businesses online and connect their stores to the digital world seamlessly. Co-op has deployed Naveo’s Commerce and Fulfilment solutions including a personalized ecommerce website, a fulfilment solution enabling super-fast home deliveries, and efficient connections to payment and logistics providers.

The new Co-op online shop and delivery service enables shoppers to order products at https://shop.coop.co.uk, and receive delivery within two hours at a convenient allocated time. The service is first available to shoppers within a four kilometer radius of a store on the Kings Road in London, before being rolled out to a further eight London stores. Co-op’s plan is to make online shopping available in a significant number of other UK towns and cities in the near future.

Co-op’s objective with the new online service and home delivery is to bring its award-winning products closer to shoppers by strengthening its digital services.

A Word from Head of Food Digital, Co-op UK

Chris Conway, Head of Food Digital at the Co-op, comments: “Our new online shop and delivery service is an essential part of our expanding digital services to our customers. In this project, we have been very excited to work together with a modern and agile technology company such as Naveo Commerce. The newly launched service is a result of our fruitful cooperation and agile development.”

A Word from Naveo CEO, Moris Chemtov

Moris Chemtov, Global CEO of Naveo Commerce, said: “We are extremely proud to partner with Co-op in the UK to help them improve their customer experience, and their digital transformation. Co-op’s strong focus on digitalization and their agile approach to development puts them in a perfect position to deploy new online services. Our mission is to help retailers make their ecommerce simple, by connecting the online and brick and mortar channels to one seamless and simple user experience.
