A model is introducing the change in delivery fee policy at Homeplus Express Gangseo store in Seoul.

[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Chunhan] Homeplus Express announced on the 1st that it has decided to waive delivery fees for all customers who purchase over 30,000 won through its online 1-hour instant delivery service.

The 1-hour instant delivery service was first introduced by Homeplus in February last year to maximize customer convenience. Homeplus was the first large-scale supermarket to launch online business and fresh food delivery in 2002. The number of customers using this service has been steadily increasing. Last month, sales and the number of buyers using the 1-hour instant delivery service grew by 150% and 158%, respectively, compared to the same month last year.

To celebrate the improvement in the delivery fee policy, a ‘1-hour Instant Delivery Benefits White Paper’ promotion will be held for customers. Until the 31st of this month, coupons for free delivery on purchases over 20,000 won will be issued up to twice. Additionally, first-time users will receive various benefits such as a shopping cart coupon worth 7,000 won, a free delivery coupon for purchases over 20,000 won, and 100-won deal product benefits.

A Homeplus representative said, “The number of customers using the 1-hour instant delivery service, which is available until 10 PM at 252 Homeplus Express stores in 33 cities nationwide, is steadily increasing,” and added, “With the significant improvement in the delivery fee policy starting today, we hope more customers can enjoy the convenience of instant delivery.”
