Retail chain SPAR has launched an online shop in Hungary, which provides home delivery service across Budapest and 49 municipalities surrounding the capital city.
The new online store, which has seen an investment of €3m and creation of approximately 100 jobs, will be expanded to further municipalities in the future.
SPAR Hungary, through the new retail solution, intends to target shoppers aged 25 to 49 years by providing premium quality service. The online shop will feature all the products available in-store at the same price.
Using the online service, which is accessible on platforms, such as tablets and smartphones, shoppers can place requests for deliveries six days a week in two-hour time slots.
Shoppers will be charged a delivery fee of €1.50 to €3.00 with a free delivery service available for orders over €76.
Orders can also be collected from drive-in points located at the INTERSPAR Hypermarkets in Diósd, Pesterzsébet and Szentendre.
