In the UK, Wiggle works with Doddle locations for deliveries, try-ons, and returns

Published July 17, 2015

WOLVERHAMPTON, U.K. (BRAIN) — The U.K.-based e-commerce retailer Wiggle will let its customers pick up orders at Doddle's 35 parcel store locations, which are located near railway stations and other commuter hubs across the country.

Doddle locations are something like FedEx stores in the U.S., providing pack, ship and receiving services from multiple carriers. Doddle also provides try-on rooms for checking the fit of clothing ordered from Wiggle and other e-commerce retailers. As part of the agreement with Wiggle, Doddle will take care of shipping returned items to Wiggle, at no charge for clothing and accessories.

Doddle locations are open seven days a week; the company provides similar services to e-commerce retailers Amazon, Warehouse, River Island, Hawes & Curtis, Countrywide and T.M. Lewin. Doddle plans to double its storefronts in the next year.

Wiggle also ships orders, including complete bikes, to its own Wiggle Workshops in St. Albans, Milton Keynes and Cambridge Retail Park.

Jo Taylor, Wiggle's brand marketing manager, said, "By the very nature of our business, our customers are often those who lead a very busy and active lifestyle. Ensuring that we give them the ultimate choice and convenience to help minimize the impact of deliveries on their day-to-day life is a major priority for us. We are extremely excited to be adding Doddle to our range of delivery and returns options and expect it to be hugely popular with our customers."

Tim Robinson, Doddle's CEO, said, "Creating a good delivery and returns experience is of utmost importance to retailers right now and Wiggle is a great brand to have join Doddle's list of retail partners. We look forward to helping Wiggle customers by making it easier for them to receive and return their cycle and apparel deliveries with Doddle."
