Amazon and Morrisons have teamed up to launch a same-day delivery service for groceries, with trials taking place across Leeds this week.

Customers are now able to do their full Morrisons food shop on Amazon.co.uk with free same-day delivery on orders over £40 as part of their Amazon Prime membership. Orders under £40 will be charged at £3.99.

The new scheme is initially being trialled in Leeds, before being rolled out across the rest of the country in the coming weeks.

“Morrisons on Amazon will build on our partnership with Amazon, making our good quality, great value food even more accessible through Amazon.co.uk and the Amazon app.”

Doug Gurr, Amazon UK country manager, said: “The launch of Morrisons on Amazon means increased visibility for Morrisons’ incredible service and selection, as well as an even greater choice for our customers.

“We’re always looking at ways to make Prime even better and this expansion of our relationship with Morrisons means that millions of Prime members can soon order their weekly groceries from their local Morrisons shop, with same-day delivery, at no extra cost.”

David Potts, Morrisons chief executive, said: “Morrisons on Amazon will build on our partnership with Amazon, making our good quality, great value food even more accessible through Amazon.co.uk and the Amazon app.

“It will give more and more customers the option of receiving Morrisons groceries straight to their doorstep, including freshly prepared products from our brilliant Market Street colleagues.”
