Online grocery shopping and delivery in Malaysia will continue gaining more popularity due to its convenience, time efficiency and return policies. However, the delivery rates can be quite hefty for small purchases, and you need to ensure that someone is home to receive the goods to avoid extra charges. Be mindful of these factors when planning for your shopping list online to ensure a smooth and rewarding online shopping experience.

I cant find the delivery address listed in tesco online, but i see one of the garden is just a block away from my location which is “Taman Nora Ulu Tiram Johor” and My location is at “Taman Bunga Raya”…too bad
Hi there, yeh, I also don’t see a lists of available addresses. I only found this Tesco page, which lets you check if your location is covered: http://www.tesco.com.my/eshop/html/Check-Service-Availability.aspx.
You probably already used that though. Anyway, sorry to hear you’re just outsider the perimeter!
Tesco does not offer online payment. Imagine you need to buy CNY goodies for your customers and you cannot pay for it. Too bad, business lost.
This is good insight. Thanks for sharing.
I guess Presto’s delivery service is so far the best compared to others as I don’t have to wait for too long. Besides, Presto has wide range of choices for everything I need to prepare for a meal. Plus, I can pay at my doorstep.
I’ve shopped Tesco Online, it’s really great, Delivery timing is Perfect and they have thousand of choice to pick from. their delivery charges is only RM10, no matter what is the value of purchaces.
Thanks Jay and Angel for sharing your thoughts.
