Food and grocery delivery service Deliveroo has partnered with pet care specialist Pets Corner to make its goods available via the Deliveroo app.
The partnership will mark the first time a pet-focused retailer’s products will be available via the delivery provider, forming part of a concerted effort by Pets Corner to meet the growing online shopping demand for pet-related items.
Deliveroo customers in select locations around Brighton and London will now be able to order from an “extensive range” of Pet Corner products, with the selection expected to grow significantly in the coming weeks.
“We’re thrilled to partner with Pets Corner, the UK pet retailer of the year,” said Suzy McClintock, VP of new verticals at Deliveroo.

“We’ve seen a huge increase in the popularity of pet products on the app, so with a wide range of Pets Corner products now available for on demand delivery, this partnership will significantly improve our customers’ access to this high-demand category.”
This upcoming selection is set to include – amongst other products – a festive Christmas range, as well as a seasonal Halloween range.
David Pack, ecommerce and marketing director at Pets Corner added: “Partnering with Deliveroo marks an exciting step forward in how we serve our customers. For new pet owners discovering us for the first time, it offers a convenient and speedy way to access our trusted, quality food and accessories.
“For our loyal customers, it’s about bringing added flexibility, whether you’re short on time, low on pet food, or simply prefer a same day service from home. We’re making shopping easier and more flexible, while still offering the knowledgeable, academy trained service our customers love us for.”
