Beauty fans who live near one of Glasgow's Boots stores will now be able to get their favourite products delivered to their door, thanks to a new partnership.
The high-street cosmetics retailer has teamed up with delivery giant Uber Eats to offer rapid delivery across hundreds of their products in as little as 30 minutes.
14 out of the retailer's major UK stores will be taking part in the pilot scheme - including Glasgow's Sauchiehall Street branch.
Meanwhile, 13 out of the 14 stores offer customers access to third-party doorstep delivery of Boots products for the first time.
More than 900 of the retailers products are now currently available on the doorstep delivery's platform, making it perfect for anyone looking to purchase some of their favourite brands, or even some Christmas gifts, from the comforts of their home.
It means that customers within range of the participating stores will be able to order from a range of the store's health and beauty products, including minor ailment medicines, beauty and fragrance brands, toiletries, baby essentials and food and drink products.
The new trial makes Boots the first, and so far only, health and beauty retailer to launch a delivery service on the Uber Eats platform, as it hopes the new scheme will offer customers a new and convenient way to access their favourite products.
Paula Bobbett, Chief Digital Officer at Boots, said: "We are hugely excited to be launching our partnership with Uber Eats. As the first health and beauty retailer on its platform, we can offer an extensive range of product options to customers for delivery straight to their door.
"Whether it’s medicines for mild illnesses or last-minute gifts, beauty items or top-ups of a favourite skincare brand, we can meet all our customers’ needs both quickly and conveniently."
Alex Troughton, Head of Commerce at Uber Eats UK, added: "We are delighted to announce our new partnership with Boots, the leading health and beauty retailer in the UK. As customers are increasingly using Uber Eats to get anything, this partnership will mean high quality health and beauty products delivered in minutes. So, no matter what you need, Uber Eats and Boots have got you covered."
