Online British Supermarket?

Hi everyone,
I was informed by a friend from Central that there is this online supermarket called British Essentials that does delivery to DB?
Wonder if anyone on the forum has ever ordered from them before. Thanks!  Roll Eyes

I have had two orders. Customer service and delivery are second to none. Order one day, delivery the next. Once I wasn't home and it was left safely at my door. They answer emails really quickly. Prices of Morrison's goods are excellent. Highly recommend!!

I'll second that - excellent service, products and price.

We're ordering everything we can from them now, when combined with Loi Chan for meat and M&S in town for veg we mostly no longer need Fusion - which is great!

We have ordered from them, and they offered very good service and prices.

There is also Uselect which has branches around Hong Kong (eg in Sheung Wan).  They have a range of Tesco products (around a third of the overall range) at low prices - it is a partnership between Tesco and China Resources Vanguard.

Thanks for all the feedback.
I agree with Chair and Incredible Bulk.
Great services, fast delivery, and good products.
Excited to see if they will add more products in the future. =)

I will be giving them a try, their prices are much cheaper than the Sainsbury's offering in Wellcome and Waitrose essentials (budget) range in PnS.

But are about 15%+ more expensive than Tesco in CN Vanguard/USelect.

However, I have to carry that back from HK Island, which is a pain...
And I can see some products on the website that I can't get in Vanguard/USelect.

In other words, a worth addition to the scene!

Karen17 I have asked them to stock ground coffee and they have said that they will. Email them with what you would like Smiley
