Sainsbury’s has expanded its app-based one-hour grocery delivery service to more than 70,000 new postcodes across London.

The Chop Chop service, which the company developed and tested in Wandsworth before rolling out between Wimbledon and the West End has now extended to a range of new areas across Zone 1 and 2.

The service offers an alternative to Amazon’s own Prime Now household and every day item delivery – and like Amazon, Sainsbury’s charges a flat fee for delivery of £4.99.

Many of the supermarket chains have embraced online delivery in an attempt to fight off the increased competition from Amazon.

The tech firm is also testing its Prime Air drone-based delivering service in Cambridgeshire.
