A supermarket giant is halting grocery delivery services to Aberdeen postcodes next month.
Waitrose has told customers living in Aberdeen they will no longer be able to receive deliveries from June 24.
Groceries from the luxury supermarket chain would usually be delivered to north-east residents from the branch in Stirling.
However, the brand has said they are no longer able to sustain the five-hour round trips.
Waitrose Aberdeen deliveries halted
The news follows after the supermarket announced a partnership with Dobbie’s on Lang Stracht in Aberdeen.
From June, over 2,000 Waitrose products will be available across the store in the garden centre.
Apologising to their “small number of regular customers”, Waitrose directed those affected to visit Dobbie’s next month.
A Waitrose spokeswoman said: “Regrettably we’ve taken the decision to end deliveries to the small number of regular customers we served in the Aberdeen area.
“We’ve looked at different options for continuing our service, however the five hour round trips from our Stirling branch to the city mean we simply aren’t able to sustain this service.
“While we are very sorry to our customers for the inconvenience, customers in the Aberdeen area will be able to buy Waitrose products from Dobbies Aberdeen from June.”
