It saw an 11% year-on-year increase in consumer turnover, amounting to €147 million, during the financial year.

The retailer's online sales grew twice as fast as the home-delivery market in 2019 and is by far the 'largest store' of the organisation, the retailer said.

Coop Netherlands also reported that around 50% of its online customers used its in-house app to place orders.
