Customers will be able to order the retailer’s best selling vibrators, massage oils, and other adult toys via the Deliveroo app or website.

The rapid delivery, fulfilled from Deliveroo Hop sites, is available to customers in Brighton, Manchester, Canning Town and Vauxhall in London.

“Valentine’s Day is one of the most exciting and important occasions for Ann Summers fans and we can’t wait to provide new and existing customers with another way to shop with us.”

The tie-up with Ann Summers builds on the delivery firm’s ‘Deliveroo Shopping’ strategy, which sees the company expand beyond takeaways.

Deliveroo revealed in November it had partnered with Screwfix, offering customers access to a range of DIY tools available for rapid delivery.

Deliveroo chief operating officer Eric French added: “We’re incredibly excited by Deliveroo Shopping and its growth potential, ensuring we can bring as many high street products on demand to people’s doors as possible.

“Ann Summers is an iconic British multi-channel retailer, much loved by individuals and couples across the country, and ahead of Valentine’s Day this year we’re making it easier for customers to buy their products.”
