Habitat teams up with DPD for click and collect service

Homeware retailer Habitat has announced that customers can now click and collect their online purchases from both Habitat stores and DPD Pickup points across the UK. Habitat told Post&Parcel that the click and collect service will cover over 3,000 products, including lighting, small flat-pack furniture, textiles, tableware and decorative accessories. The service is available from over 2,300 DPD Pickup collection sites including over 200 Sainsbury’s supermarkets, as well as Habitat’s own stores in London, Leeds and Edinburgh.

Clare Askem, Habitat’s MD, said: “Over 60% of our sales are now generated online so giving customers the choice of fast delivery to a collection point close to where they live or work at a time that’s convenient makes sound business sense.

“Our customers increasingly want speed, flexibility and choice and our aim is to develop the Habitat brand into a multi-channel business for the digital age, more accessible to an increasingly online customer base and to provide a flexible delivery proposition that works around modern life.”
