According to Coles General Manager of Digital Operations & Ventures, Claire Pallot, the partnership will offer Australians a fast, reliable, and affordable option for getting fresh produce and groceries delivered to their doorsteps.

“Customers can continue to enjoy great value and quality produce they find at Coles, but with the convenience of on-demand delivery through UberEats,” she said.

Starting from April 14, Melbournians will be the first to see Coles available on UberEats from nearly 40 locations, with plans to add more than 500 Coles stores across the country onto the platform in the coming months.

This means that Coles will have the largest network of UberEats customers than any other Australian grocery retailer on the app.

Lucas Groeneveld, UberEats Regional General Manager of Retail ANZ, said, “We’re excited to be extending our partnership with Coles to bring an incredible selection of fresh produce and everyday grocery items to Aussie customers…UberEats’ goal is to meet customers’ growing desire to get (almost) anything they need delivered on-demand, and this expansion will supercharge the wide variety of groceries available on the app.”

To place an order, all you need to do is open the UberEats app and tap the ‘Grocery’ button or search for Coles from the search bar.
