The click-and-collect program of eBay and Woolworths has added 200,000 shoppers into Woolies one year from the launch of the partnership.
The partnership, which has piloted a parcel drop-off service, rolled out nationally eight months ahead of schedule with more than 10,000 sellers.
Steve Brennen, senior director marketing and retail innovation at eBay, said “We see this as the natural extension of a partnership that has exceeded expectations to date.”
“When we launched our click and collect partnership with Woolworths one year ago, we shook up the industry by allowing smaller sellers and their customers to take advantage of extra convenience and efficiency. Now we’re using our expertise to remove some of the friction involved in selling too,” said Brennen.
Available in five Woolworths supermarkets across Sydney, local eBay sellers will be able to drop off a sold item at a Woolworths store and have it shipped by CouriersPlease directly to their buyer.
Woolworths Lane Cove, Neutral Bay Village, Northbridge, Double Bay and Balgowlah have been selected to take part in the parcel drop-off pilot.
