The Deliveroo Christmas tree delivery service has been launched by the delivery service in the UK to offer consumers with ultra-easy access to holiday decorations this season. The service will enable customers to order fresh fir trees right from the Deliveroo app from trusted local suppliers, which will then have them delivered the same day right to their door. The service is expected to come as a welcome option for the millions of urbanites who don't have a car to help them easily access a tree without having to carry it home from the shops.
Vice President of New Verticals Suzy McClintock commented on the Deliveroo Christmas tree delivery service saying, "As Christmas fast approaches, we’re thrilled to make it even easier for our customers to get into the festive spirit. We know the run up to Christmas can be a hectic time and there aren’t enough hours in the day, so between ordering in pizzas for Friendsmas, getting a top up of mince pies, and now getting your Christmas tree, Deliveroo has you covered.”
