Last-mile logistics specialist Stuart has announced a new partnership with global tech company Square, designed to streamline delivery and operations for restaurants, retail, and beauty businesses. By integrating Stuart’s last-mile delivery platform with Square’s point of sale (POS) system, businesses can enhance efficiency and unlock new revenue streams.

Square’s platform is customizable, allowing businesses to adapt to various customer preferences for ordering, payment, and delivery. The system helps manage cash flow, team members, deliveries, and customer data, providing an optimized e-commerce experience for both businesses and consumers.

The partnership with Stuart enables merchants using Square Online to automatically connect with a network of local independent couriers. This integration enhances digital ordering and delivery, fostering direct customer relationships and boosting brand loyalty.

“With the rapid pace of e-commerce and increasing competition, it’s vital for businesses to strengthen customer connections and streamline operations,” said Cornelia Raportaru, CEO of Stuart. “By partnering with Square, we’re excited to empower even more businesses with a fully integrated system that simplifies delivery and operations.”

Samina Hussain-Letch, Executive Director of Square UK, echoed this sentiment: “This partnership provides businesses with an easy solution for automating in-house deliveries, giving them more time to focus on productivity and growth, which ultimately allows them to deliver a better customer experience.”
