Supermarket and hypermarket chain Carrefour has introduced a new express one-hour delivery service in Paris and Neuilly-sur-Seine, France.

The €4.90 delivery service enables customers to select from 2,000 everyday products, including fresh produce and household items, and have delivered them within the hour.

"Carrefour has been trialling its express delivery service in Paris since October."

Customers can also choose a 30min delivery slot, enabling Carrefour to supply specific information about shopping delivery times.

The new delivery service does not require a minimum purchase amount or subscription, and customers can also track the progress of their order using the firm's Express delivery app.

Deliveries will be fulfilled by French-based start-up Stuart.

Introducing home delivery services in 1994, Carrefour has been trialling its express delivery service in Paris since October.
