Ocado is a UK-based online supermarket founded by Jonathan Faiman, Jason Gissing and Tim Steiner in April 2000. The company was launched in January 2000 as a concept and began trading as a business in partnership with Waitrose in 2002. Unlike its competitors like Tesco and Sainsbury’s, the company has no chain of stores and does all home deliveries from its warehouses. Since 2010, Ocado has been voted by readers of Which? As the best online supermarket in the country.
Today, Ocado.com is one of the leading dedicated online grocery retailer with more than 580,000 active customers shopping with them.
Their objective is to provide their customers with the best possible shopping experience in terms of service, range and price, which creates a powerful business and delivers a long term value for their shareholders.
In order to create their pioneering online shopping and fulfillment business model, they designed their very own proprietary solutions from scratch without any blueprint to follow. They have developed an exclusive end-to-end operating solution for online grocery retail based on proprietary technology and IP, suitable for operating their own business as well as for their commercial partners.

What is the relationship between Ocado and Morrisons?
Since 2014, Ocado has fulfilled Morrisons online deliveries. It is a commercial partnership. When you order food and other items from Morrisons.com and have it delivered to your home, it comes from Ocado’s Dordon Customer Fulfilment Centre (CFC) in the Midlands. In 2014, Morrisons paid up to £170 million to acquire the CFC, but still pays an annual contribution towards licensing and research and development.
If you have a problem with your Ocado delivery, you should always contact the company via Ocado website or telephone number - and if you're shopping via Morrisons you should always contact via the Morrisons website and telephone number.

How do I book a delivery?
When you've logged in, just hit the “Book a delivery” button on the home page of our website or app.
It is recommended to book a delivery first, so when you start shopping they’ll see what's in stock and available for your delivery.
How long can I hold a delivery slot for before I have to check out?
Your chosen delivery slot will be reserved for 60 minutes, but it will expire if you don't check out within that time. If your chosen delivery does expire, you'll need to reserve the slot again or possibly book a new one.
Non-perishable Products
If you’re not happy with a non-perishable item, they’ll gladly refund it, simply contact their Customer Service team as soon as possible. You can call them on 0345 656 1234 or email ocado@ocado.com.

Perishable
When your delivery arrives, your driver will go through your order with you. If there’s anything you’re not happy with, simply hand it back and your bill will be instantly recalculated. If you change your mind about a product after your driver has left, just call their friendly Customer Service team on 0345 656 1234 to discuss your options.
