The hottest commodity in the workplace is usually time. So, how can you get more of it?
We’re pretty excited about the Woolworths at Work business shopping experience. But we know that if you’re responsible for ordering business office supplies — including keeping the fridge and kitchen pantry stocked — you don’t want to spend all day doing it!
If you’re trying to squeeze more time out of your day, the solution is simple: upgrade to Woolworths at Work. Here are just a handful of time-saving benefits of partnering with one of Australia’s most trusted suppliers.
1. One single supplier
Juggling multiple supplier relationships can take precious time out of your day. Ordering on different platforms, waiting around for a dozen deliveries throughout the week, receiving invoices here, there and everywhere – wouldn’t life be simpler with a single supplier?
That’s us. One simple platform to order everything you’d typically purchase from the butcher, baker, greengrocer and stationery supplier. And if you like shopping local, our range has plenty of Australian and Indigenous-owned brands your business can support.
2. Fill your cart faster
Whether you’re managing an office, ordering for an ECEC service such as an early learning centre, or just trying to keep your business supplies fully stocked, the last thing you want to do is waste precious hours scrolling online to find what you need – especially if you order the same staple items week after week.
With the quick reorder feature, you can easily reorder items and quantities from a previous shop in just a few clicks. Simply find a past order, use the ‘add all to cart’ button and check out as usual, so you can get back to the more important tasks on your to-do list.
3. Easy digital payment options
When ordering business supplies, working out how to pay for them can often slow things down. We know many people shopping for their business shop with various credit cards, gift cards or even use their own money then submit their receipt for reimbursement. But Woolworths at Work removes all that headache, streamlining the payment process and ensuring no shopper is left out of pocket.
We’ll securely store your card details so you can check out in just a few clicks, so there’s no need to rifle through your drawer looking for that post-it note with the communal credit card details. And if you use a business line of credit1, you can even consolidate an entire month’s worth of purchases into a single invoice. How’s that for efficiency?
4. Smart search
We know that many of our shoppers primarily use the search function to find the items they need. So, to save you time scrolling through the results, we’ll serve up personalised recommendations based on items you purchase regularly. Is your business a regular buyer of Tim Tams? If that’s the case, Tim Tams will regularly appear at the top of your search results when you’re searching for biscuits.
5. Bagless to Bench
No time to unpack your order? No worries. If you select ‘Bagless to Bench’ as your delivery method, our friendly delivery drivers will unpack it directly onto your bench for you. And what’s great about this service is that it’s completely free! Meanwhile, the reduction in excess packaging is a nice win for the planet, too.
6. Filters for finding dietary items fast
Finding the right items to meet your business needs shouldn’t take all day. With our dietary filters, you can do it in minutes. When you order online, use our selection of dietary and lifestyle filters to quickly search for suitable products. We have more than 25 filters, including dairy, gluten, soy and egg-free, low fat, low salt, halal, organic, vegan and more.
7. Create custom lists for different occasions
You can save even more time by creating custom lists for different occasions – Monthly stationery order, Weekly fruit delivery and Cleaning essentials are a few handy ideas. When it’s time to order, you can add the entire list to your cart, adjust your quantities and head straight to the checkout. We’ve even created a whole pile of custom lists for you to get started.
8. Amend orders
Being able to change your order before your allocated cut-off time (as noted in your Order Confirmation) means you can quickly adjust your business supplies according to changing circumstances without losing your delivery window. This feature can be game-changing if you’re a business with fluctuating supply needs — removing the need to restart an order from scratch when you need to amend it.
9. Out of stock suggestions
We always aim to ensure everything you need is available when you order, but if your top pick is out of stock, we’ll suggest a few similar alternatives. Our business range is carefully curated to meet your needs, so even if your favourite brand or package size isn’t available, there are usually multiple alternatives we’ll surface to save you having to hunt for similar options yourself. Plus, it’s a great opportunity to step outside the box and try new brands and varieties.
10. Quality you can trust
Knowing you can get a range you can trust is a huge time saver — there’s no need to worry about whether you’ll get those quality fresh food and everyday items you need. We provide Australia’s Healthiest Supermarket Own Brand2, which means hundreds of great value healthier products – from convenient salads to ready-made meals, bakery, dairy foods and more – with our qualified nutritionists and product development teams working together to keep making our Own Brand range healthier. And with our Fresh or Free Guarantee3, if you’re not 100% satisfied, we’ll refund the items.
