Electricals retailer AO has announced that its in-store experience has opened at Tesco Extra in Stevenage.
This is one of five stores-within-a-store, as part of a partnership trial with the supermarket.
The opening is part of AO’s strategy to reach even more customers, marking the online retailer’s first in-store presence.
The move sees AO expand the electricals category for Tesco customers in its Stevenage store.
Customers will be able to browse and purchase from all the categories available on AO.com. This includes larger electricals such as washing machines, fridges, and TVs that can be ordered for home delivery as well a range of smaller products such as kettles and toasters that can be purchased off the shelf.
