Shutl today announced that consumer electronics specialist Maplin has integrated Shutl’s unique delivery service into its website. The partnership will enable Maplin’s online customers to have their orders delivered within as little as 90 minutes or choose a one-hour delivery window from 9am to 9pm, seven days a week.

Shutl will deliver to qualifying postcodes throughout the UK using stock from 83 Maplin stores across the country, with a further 21 stores to be covered in spring 2012.The new service will be available to over 60 per cent of the UK’s online shoppers from launch.

“Maplin offers its customers the latest in innovation and technology, so it’s only natural that their delivery proposition reflectsthis,” says Tom Allason, founder and CEO of Shutl. “Technology enthusiasts hate waiting more than a few moments for a web page to load, so it seems strange that they accept waiting days for their new tech. Now that Maplin will be delivering at rocket speed, they won’t have to.”

Gareth Pownall of Maplin, comments: “This new partnership with Shutl will give our customers an even better access to our range of 15,000 products. Maplin is the first retailer to embed the Shutl delivery options within the Checkout process, and with delivery starting from only £5, the service represents fantastic value for money ”

Shutl’s service launched in 2010 and has since built successful partnerships with retail stalwarts Argos, Oasis, Coast, Karen Millen and Warehouse to offer online shoppers the world’s fastest and most convenient delivery options all over the UK. Shutl’sproposition has helped these High Street retailers to develop a competitive edge over pureplay e-tailers like Amazon and ASOS.
