Delivery Services Available in Govanhill During COVID19
With residents struggling to get delivery slots from the larger supermarkets, we’ve rounded up a list of local businesses delivering in these challenging times.
Veg box delivery from Seasonal Produce
We know that many people in greater Govanhill are self-isolating and unable to get to the shops at the moment. For many of us it’s the first time we haven’t had the convenience of just being able to pop to the local shop. Delivery slots for larger supermarkets are booked up weeks in advance, causing some anxiety. But there are a number of local businesses and wholesalers offering next day delivery. These are the ones we know of, but if there’s any to add, just let us know.
