Social shopping: Migros launches online service Amigos
Migros will soon launch a new online service called Amigos. With it, you can have others do your shopping for you when you don't have time.
The idea behind AmigosIf you don't have time to go shopping or are otherwise prevented from doing so, you can deposit your shopping list on the Amigos portal. Registered "bringers" can do the shopping and receive just under 8 francs per shopping bag - literally a kind of "sack money".
Migros will not earn anything directly from this service. The social idea is in the foreground, explains a spokeswoman to SonntagsBlick. Since only Migros products can be commissioned, the project naturally also has a sales-promoting background.
Bringers" can register since last Friday. Purchases can be made from April 23. And Migros does not think that Amigos will compete with its own delivery service Le Shop. The shopping baskets at Amigos are smaller due to the elimination of the minimum order value, and the platform is also more spontaneous - you can also order the ingredients for dinner in the afternoon, according to Migros.
