Asos has rolled out ‘ASOS Instant’ as a last-minute shopping solution for customers, with an option to deliver orders the same evening.
Adam Scholes, director of delivery solutions at Asos, said: “Through Asos Instant, Asos customers can place an order during the day and receive it to their door that evening – vital for those last-minute purchases that just can’t wait. It’s great to be launching this new partnership with Hived for Asos Instant deliveries into Greater London, as we continue our journey to reduce emissions from our operations.”
The current collaborative move is an effort to reduce emissions from the online fashion retailers’ supply chain.
Hived started with the mission to build, as the company says, ‘first-ever emissions-free’ parcel delivery for the mass market, scaling some of the largest retailers and shipping thousands of parcels daily.
The delivery company operates an entirely electric fleet of vans, cars and bikes and offer same-day, next-day and two-day shipping options to all of Greater London.
