Morrisons is to install the UK's largest collection of Amazon Lockers meaning shoppers can pick up Amazon orders at the supermarket.

The lockers build on the existing relationship between Morrisons and Amazon, a statement said, as thousands of Morrisons grocery products are now available through Amazon Fresh.

Morrisons chief financial officer Trevor Strain said: 'Many busy customers can’t wait at home for their delivery, and we believe the option to pick it up from one of our hundreds of conveniently located supermarkets will be attractive.'

John Tagawa, Amazon’s vice president of UK operations, said: 'We are delighted to introduce Amazon Lockers at Morrisons supermarkets. Amazon Lockers are the delivery option of choice for many customers who want to pick up their shopping at a time and place that suits them best. Morrisons supermarkets are ideal locations for Amazon Lockers which allow people to pick up their parcels while on the move.”

The lockers are also part of Morrisons’ plans to add ‘popular and useful services’ to stores.

There are more than 1,000 Amazon Lockers nationwide in locations ranging from petrol stations, convenience stores, shopping centres, universities, train stations, banks and airports. Shoppers access their lockers using a code sent by email or text.
