The Co-op Fresh Mondays promotion is part of the brand's initiative in the UK to maximize access to fresh fruits and vegetables in the face of high food costs.
The new weekly offer initiative will enable shoppers to enjoy up to 50% off select fresh fruits and vegetables every Monday, which includes a variety of classics for shoppers to choose from. This includes blackberries down from £3.35 to £1.63, strawberries from £2.95 to £1.48 and a four-pack of Pink Lady apples from £2.85 to £1.43. The promotion builds on the brand's recent initiative to focus mainly on prices for its latest campaigns.
The Co-op Fresh Mondays promotion was bolstered by a 24-hour-only deal that was offered through Uber Eats that saw eggs, milk and bread available for just 75p.
