MELBOURNE: In a LinkedIn post, Purpl said: “Living with a disability or long-term health condition in the UK brings significant additional monthly costs, and accessing essential grocery items online should not be part of that barrier. This corporate partnership is a massive milestone for our community. Through this trial, Purpl members can claim a £5 discount code to use on online home deliveries, Click & Collect orders, or Tesco Whoosh rapid delivery.”
It added: “While this initiative is an eight-week trial to start, we hope it will pave the way for long-term changes, we are highly confident this collaboration will make a tangible, real difference to our members. A huge thank you to the team at Tesco for backing our vision and working with us to build a more inclusive, financially supportive environment for disabled people across the UK.”
YEEP! has announced a partnership with Tesco, following the completion of a trial phase. This will see its solar powered lockers installed at 30 Tesco locations, with further expansion planned subject to performance and customer feedback.
Jamie Dickinson CEO at YEEP!, says: “We are incredibly proud to be partnering with Tesco to roll-out YEEP! parcel lockers across their store network. As one of the UK’s most trusted retailers, Tesco shares our commitment to convenience, accessibility, and community presence, making this a significant milestone for us. This partnership marks an important step in our mission to make parcel delivery and returns simpler, smarter, and more accessible. By placing our lockers at Tesco locations, we are meeting customers where they already shop and providing secure, convenient parcel services that fit seamlessly into their daily routines.”
He adds: “Together, we are creating meaningful value for both organisations, supporting Tesco’s already strong customer experience, and driving additional footfall, while accelerating our national expansion. Most importantly, this collaboration makes sending, collecting, and returning parcels easier than ever for customers. We are excited about what this partnership represents today and the opportunities it creates for the future.”
