Supermarke­t enhances online shopping service

- By ABISHEK CHAND

MH Supermarke­t and MaxValu customers who have a BSP EasyCard or any VISA Credit or Debit card can now shop online through BSP’s internet payment gateway online payment portal.

In a statement from the company, director retail and marketing of Carpenters Group Fiji, Kunaseelan Sabaratnam was delighted with the service enhancemen­t as it was a well-timed Christmas gift for their valued customers who preferred online shopping.

“We are delighted to be able to extend our services and offer our customers the choice to shop online in addition to being able to walk into their favourite store,” he said.

“To be able to offer online shopping to BSP EasyCard customers is really exciting for us because there are thousands of them who would previously only be served at our stores, apart from the Visa Debit and Credit cardholder­s.”

MH Online was stated to have become popular during the COVID-19 restrictio­n and lockdown period, as it had enabled customers, including those overseas, to shop.

“The online offer is an important part of our offering in that it reduces the dependency on physical shops.

“It also extends our reach by allowing people abroad to help their families in Fiji with shopping.

“They simply go to our online store, select the items they want and have them delivered to the homes of their loved ones.

“This would be a great way to delight their families for Christmas.

“With our 150 years of experience in Fiji, we are continuous­ly evolving to remain relevant in Fijian homes,” said Mr Sabaratnam.

He added BSP’s IPG would help them realise their goal of ensuring ease of shopping, accessibil­ity and a wide range of goods to ensure the best possible experience for their customers.

Customers who shop from the MH Supermarke­t or Max Val-u online stores get free delivery for shopping above $200.

Customers will be levied a flat fee of $15 for delivery within 5km of any MH or Max Val-u store if their shopping was below $200.

“As one of the largest supermarke­t chains in Fiji, we are well-positioned to serve Fijians, locally and abroad, with a trusted delivery service,” said Mr Sabaratnam.

BSP country head Haroon Ali said they were delighted to assist one of their long-standing partners by offering an internet payment gateway solution which expanded their online payment acceptance capabiliti­es.

“We encourage our customers with a BSP EasyCard or any VISA Debit or Credit cards to visit MH Online and enjoy the convenienc­e of online shopping,” he said.

Over 2700 in-store items will be made available online for customers as the company has also confirmed releasing mobile apps both for android and IOS for the shoppers on the go.
