Yodel partners with Figleaves

Yodel has announced a new partnership with online lingerie and swimwear retailer, Figleaves, which is expected to bring over half a million parcels into the network each year.

The partnership means Yodel is now Figleaves’ sole UK delivery partner, providing a choice of delivery options including next day delivery and pre-midday delivery with an extended order deadline.

Yodel will provide Figleaves’ customers with online tracking of their parcels. The shoppers will also receive proactive Figleaves-branded email updates, SMS messages and push notifications via the Yodel app.

By extending the seal time at Yodel’s sort, Figleaves is also able to increase its order deadline, allowing customers to order later in the evening and still receive their purchases next day, six days a week as standard. In addition shoppers will also have the option to receive their items before noon.

This new partnership follows Figleaves’ existing collaboration with Yodel’s subsidiary company, Drop & Collect (trading as CollectPlus), which allows customers to collect or return their orders through a nationwide network of over 7,000 neighbourhood stores.

Commenting on the partnership, Neil Ashworth, Chief Commercial Officer at Yodel and CEO of CollectPlus, said: “We see ourselves as an extension of our retail clients’ businesses, supporting them and their customers throughout the delivery process. Following the successful collaboration with our CollectPlus service, we are thrilled to announce that Figleaves has chosen to extend the relationship with Yodel.”
