Woolworths Launch New Rapid Delivery Service

Grocery chain Woolworths are rolling out their brand-new rapid delivery service in partnership with Uber.

The grocery giant have promised delivery in under one hour as part of their new delivery service ‘Metro60’.

The new delivery service was announced last month which has reportedly put significant pressure on newcomers Milkrun and Voly. 

Woolworths chief transformation officer Von Ingram told The Sydney Morning Herald that they are keeping a close eye on data to ascertain the profitability of the delivery service.
