“In total, it is planned to open 14 similar warehouses at IKEA facilities across Russia. On this basis, the marketplace is testing the implementation of express delivery of goods by its sellers working under the “Storage + delivery from Megamarket” (FBO) scheme,” they said.
Delivery time is from one hour from the moment of ordering. Districts: Northern Tushino, Khovrino, Eastern Degunino and others.
Express delivery from a renovated warehouse in Krasnodar is currently being tested; fast delivery is possible to areas located in the north and west of the city.
These warehouses store small-sized goods that are popular with customers: cosmetics, children’s toys, stationery, household items, DIY products, car accessories and seasonal items. The procedure for placing goods in new warehouses has not changed in any way: sellers must arrange delivery through their personal account, and users will see these goods in the “Express” section when choosing delivery options.
An unusual pick-up point (POP) is planned to open in Moscow, at 18/1с2 Ovchinnikovskaya Embankment, where the Megamarket office is located. A mechanical treadmill will be installed inside the point with the code name “Flagship PVZ”, and a 3m by 1.6m LED panel will be installed in front of it, the design will be complemented by ceiling lighting and shelves with sneakers.
