Tesco has launched a week-long free delivery offer to help shoppers get groceries to their doors at no extra cost.

The supermarket is waiving delivery charges on its Whoosh rapid delivery service for all orders of £25 or more between June 11 and June 17.

Whoosh allows customers to order groceries and household essentials from their nearest Tesco store and have them delivered in as little as 20 minutes.

Francesca Jones, head of Whoosh at Tesco, said: "We know there are times when customers need groceries and household essentials quickly, whether that's a last-minute top-up, forgotten essentials for hosting, or snacks for a big week of football.

"By offering free delivery on orders over £25 for a limited time, we're making it even easier for customers to enjoy the great value they expect from Tesco, with the speed and convenience of Whoosh."

Delivery charges are typically applied to all Whoosh orders, but under this promotion, the fee will be removed automatically at checkout once the minimum spend is reached.

The offer does not require a promo code and will be available for eligible orders placed between 6am on June 11 and 11.59pm on June 17.

Tesco introduced the Whoosh service nationally in 2021 and has since expanded it to stores across much of the UK, offering thousands of products through participating stores.

The supermarket said the promotion is designed to support customers who need groceries in a hurry, whether they've run out of essentials, are preparing to host guests, or simply need supplies for a busy week of football.

It comes as retailers continue to invest in rapid delivery options to meet growing demand for convenience and last-minute shopping solutions.
