You can give it a bash on Friday.

Hot on the heels of Aldi, where Deliveroo is currently dropping essentials to shoppers in Blackrock and Ballyphehane, Lidl is also offering customers the opportunity to get the discounted groceries in without leaving the house.

Buymie, Ireland’s leading same-day grocery delivery provider, has teamed up with Lidl Ireland to offer home grocery deliveries and full personal shopping services to over 86,000 Cork households.

The service will go live citywide this Friday, August 28th, and will be available through six participating Lidl Stores:

• Lidl Ballincollig
• Lidl Wilton
• Lidl Togher
• Lidl Churchfield
• Lidl Ballyvolane
• Lidl Glanmire

Earlier this year, Buymie founders Devan Hughes and Art Sokhikyan announced the creation of 200 additional personal shopping roles for Ireland in response to demand for same-day grocery delivery. 50 of these jobs have been earmarked for Cork (you can still apply here).

“Over the past few months our teams across the country have kept the shelves filled and served millions of customers every week.” said Conor Nagle, Regional Director for Lidl in Munster.

“Given that not everyone is in a position to visit their local Lidl at present we are delighted to extend the Buymie service to six stores in Cork city, ensuring thousands of shoppers have access to the incredible value that Lidl offers in a more accessible way.

“Cork is a very important market for Lidl and we continue to invest heavily in the county with a new store being built in Kanturk and an application lodged for Blarney in recent weeks.”
