Petbarn, the pet supplies chain – owned by Greencross Limited will now offer same-day delivery in metro areas across the country by the end of this week, thanks to a partnership with the ride-sharing platform, Uber.
The delivery service will enable shoppers to order products online by 4pm and have them delivered to their doorstep that same day. Orders will be fulfilled from stock in Petbarn’s network of more than 200 stores.
“They utilise our network of over 200 stores and combined with our extensive product range, can get customers what they are looking for without them having to venture out of their homes.” – George Wahby, CEO of Petbarn & Greencross Vets.
While Petbarn stores have remained open throughout the shutdown, Wahby acknowledged that vulnerable and elderly people may not feel comfortable, or able, to leave their homes.
