The concept has been live in beta phase since September 2020 with Woolworths taking steps to improve the customer experience progressively ahead of the formal launch this week. The site’s features now include two-hour delivery windows, an intelligent Work Hub, consolidated billing and credit.

Nass claims that one of Woolworths at Work’s focus areas is continuing to offer more transparency via the Work Hub. With real-time reporting and the ability to view transactional level spending at various business layers, the Work Hub directly assists customers in resolving their issues.

“At a time when businesses expect flexibility, reliability, transparency and control from their suppliers, we’re offering this in the form of a grocery service that has been grown for business,” added Nass. 

He said that with many businesses facing staff shortages and ongoing Covid disruptions, Woolworths at Work hopes it will help customers manage ordering supplies more efficiently and gain time back to focus on their core business.
