On demand delivery firm Snappy Shopper expands into Jersey with Alliance Retail and Iceland Foods partnership

Snappy Shopper has officially launched in Jersey with Alliance Retail through an Iceland Foods store, marking its first expansion into the Channel Islands. 

It says that early results show average order values reaching £72, significantly above typical UK convenience benchmarks. The partnership is powered by EdgePoS integration, enabling real-time pricing, stock availability and promotions. 

Greg Deacon, VP, Snappy Shopper, says: “Launching in Jersey is an exciting milestone for Snappy Shopper as we continue to expand our reach and bring best-in-class convenience e-commerce to new communities. Partnering with Alliance Retail and Iceland has allowed us to hit the ground running, and achieving a £72 average order value so early is a strong indicator of both customer demand and the strength of the model in this market. With super fast delivery and strong slot availability, alongside our integration with EdgePoS, we’re delivering a seamless and highly reliable experience for customers.”

Ross Falla, Finance Director, Alliance Retail, comments: “We’re delighted to launch this new service for customers in Jersey, providing a reliable and convenient way for people to access groceries and everyday essentials without needing to visit a store in person. This partnership is an important part of our continued expansion plans, both digitally and through future retail growth across the islands. We see significant potential to broaden the range available to customers over time and continue improving accessibility and convenience for the communities we serve.”

2026 RTIH Innovation Awards

On demand delivery will be a key focus area at the 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards.

The awards are now open for entries and celebrate global retail technology innovation in a fast moving omnichannel world.

Our winners will be revealed at the 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards Ceremony, taking place at The HAC in Central London on Wednesday, 4th November.

Check out our 2025 winners here.

Our 2025 hall of fame entrants were revealed during a sold out event which took place at The HAC on 16th October and consisted of a drinks reception, three course meal, and awards ceremony presided over by award winning comedian, actress and writer Tiff Stevenson.

In his welcome speech, Scott Thompson, Founder and Editor, RTIH, said: “This is the awards’ fifth year as a physical event. We started off with just 30 people at the South Place Hotel not far from here, then moved to London Bridge Hotel, then The Barbican, and last year RIBA’s HQ in the West End.”

“But I’m conscious of the fact that, to quote the legend that is Taylor Swift, You’re only as hot as your last hit, baby. So, this year we’ve moved to our biggest venue yet, and also pulled in our largest number of entries to date and broken attendance records.”

He added: “This year’s submissions have without doubt been our best yet. To quote one of the judges: The examples of innovative developments across both traditional and digital retail spaces were truly remarkable.”

Congratulations to our winners, and a big thank you to our sponsors, judging panel, the legend that is Tiff Stevenson, and all those who attended our 2025 gathering.
