Supermarket Morrisons has signed a deal with shoe repair and key cutting firm Timpson to extend Timpson’s branches within Morrisons stores.

Timpson will take over the dry cleaning operations at 116 supermarkets and will extend the offering into its own areas of key cutting, as well as shoe and phone/tablet repairs.

Roger Fogg, director of popular and useful services at Morrisons, said: “This partnership will mean that customers will find more popular and useful services at Morrisons stores. This is a way of growing our offer that is both capital-light and simpler for our colleagues.”

James Timpson, Timpson chief executive, added: “Through Timpson at Morrisons we will give shoppers our full service offer, from key cutting to mobile phone repairs, while they shop. We’re also looking forward to making our great value dry cleaning service available to new customers in even more Morrisons stores.”
