Sun protection is crucial for a day at the beach, and to ensure no one misses out, Deliveroo launched a world-first surfboard delivery service to swiftly provide emergency sun cream and other products to beach-goers who forgot to pack them. The SPF SOS delivery service plays up Deliveroo's recently launched Holiday Essentials Hub, which helps to deliver items to one's doorstep in less than 30 minutes.
In response to finding that sun cream, mobile device chargers and toothbrushes are among the most forgotten holiday essentials for people in Britain, Deliveroo launched the Holiday Essentials Hub and the eFoil surfboard service at Brighton beach to promote it. Although the theatrical SPF SOS is exclusive to Brighton, customers outside of this area can get their holiday essentials delivered via the Holiday Essentials Hub.
