DIY retailer Wickes has revealed that it has partnered with On The Dot to provide its new one-hour delivery service, making it the first in its sector.
The new service, Wickes Hourly offers deliveries nationwide and will be available every day of the week for a minimum cost of £9.95 as the company aims to solidify its place in the “go economy”.
Duncan Kendal, Wickes supply chain director, commented: “We pride ourselves on making our customers’ lives that little bit easier and we’re excited to say we’re the first to market with this new delivery option in our sector.
“Whether you need paint or power tools, by partnering with On The Dot we have been able to offer a range of home improvement products exactly where and when people need them."
Patrick Gallagher, On The Dot chief executive, added: “We know that consumers now expect to shop on their terms and it is retailers, like Wickes, who have put convenient delivery at the top of their agenda, that will succeed in retaining and attracting new customers.’’
