Takealot expands pickup points to 36 Pick n Pay stores
Pick n Pay says the service has been well-received, allowing customers to conveniently collect their Takealot orders while shopping for groceries or running errands.
Takealot is expanding its network of delivery pickup points at Pick n Pay supermarkets, with plans to reach 36 locations by the end of 2025.
Shoppers from Greenstone Mall to Gonubie are embracing the simplicity of collecting their online orders while running their errands. Between February and May this year, collections at Pick n Pay-based Takealot Pickup Points doubled. The service now processes over 14,000 collections per month, with more than 45,000 unique customers having used it to date, read the statement.
Karla Levick, Chief Marketing Officer at Takealot, says the appeal lies in how seamlessly it fits into people's everyday routines. "You don't have to wait at home for a delivery or go out of your way. Simply collect your order when it suits you. That's the kind of practical convenience South Africans want."
These pickup points are situated inside select Pick n Pay stores, typically near the customer service kiosks.
To use the service, customers choose a participating Pick n Pay location during checkout, wait for the collection notification, and pick up their order during the store’s regular trading hours.
