IKEA is trialling self-serve lockers as it extends its partnership with Tesco to make collecting online orders easier and more affordable for customers. The lockers are being tested at three supermarkets, including the Peterborough Werrington store, with lockers in Dereham and Cambridge to be launched later this month. Customers within 100km of the self-serve collection point can order a wide range of IKEA products, from small items like Knoppäng picture frames to larger flat-pack favourites such as Billy bookcases or Pax wardrobes. Orders placed before 6:30 am will be available to collect on the same day, and purchases made after are eligible for collection the following day.
Frasers Group and Authentic considering partnership

Frasers Group and Authentic Brands are reportedly in discussions to establish a potential partnership. This move could see Frasers become the UK and European operating partner for several brands in Authentic's portfolio, including Reebok and Ted Baker.
