Amazon Prime Now one hour deliveries extended to Birmingham
Amazon has extended the reach of its one hour deliveries to Birmingham as part of a gradual roll-out across UK cities.
As part of the Prime Now service, rapid deliveries on daily essentials such as coffee, batteries and nappies, as well as other popular items like games consoles, toys and sports equipment, are all possible through the mobile app.
As a further incentive to attract Prime customers at the cost of £79 a year (with a free 30 day trial), Birmingham and surrounding areas including Lichfield, Cannock and Tamworth are within the catchment.
Christopher North, managing director of Amazon UK, said: “Customers in London already benefit from ultra-fast delivery with Prime Now and we are delighted to bring this innovative service to Birmingham and selected postcodes in surrounding areas only five weeks after our London launch.
“We are excited to continue delivering to customers in record-breaking time.”
The move follows the service debuting in London in June with more cities lined up for the end of 2015.
