But let’s be honest – navigating today’s grocery landscape isn’t easy.
- Rising costs across fuel, labour and energy continue to squeeze margins, leading to tough decisions, such as the closure of 19 stores in 2024.
- At the same time, reliance on third-party delivery platforms means giving up control of your brand, customer relationships and profitability. And that makes it harder to create the seamless, high-quality experience your shoppers expect.
- Sustainability is your priority. But electrifying your fleet and rolling out eco-friendly last-mile delivery is challenging, especially in rural areas with infrastructure gaps.
- Meanwhile, competitors including ASDA, Sainsbury’s and Tesco are doubling down on rapid home delivery through their own channels. This raises the bar for speed and convenience.
Online grocery has seen substantial growth – in 2024, online grocery sales accounted for 13.1% of all UK grocery sales. This trend is set to stay; over the past five years online grocery revenue has surged at a compound annual growth rate of 10.8%, and reached an estimated £22.0 billion in 2024.
It’s a tough market. But with Stuart, there’s a smarter way forward – one that gives you control, strengthens your margins, and supports customer experiences.
We offer a flexible solution that can enhance your service offering and reinforce your reputation as a sustainability leader.
