The London pilot started in June 2000 with four retailer partners :
Food Ferry, the home delivery London grocer; Berry Bros, the UK's oldest wine merchant; The London Laundry Dry Cleaning Company offering excellent value cleaning & laundry services and Jeeves of Belgravia, London's finest dry cleaner.
Our London customers are therefore enjoying unattended home delivery of life's essentials - fresh and frozen food, fine wines and clean clothes.

The Reading pilot begins in October with the full support of the Reading Borough Council. Reading's vision is to be a totally e-enabled community by 2020.
Twelve hundred households will be installed with a Homeport within the RG postcode covering a range of household sizes, income levels, ages and technical abilities.
Reading is a demographic mirror of the UK population and provides ideal learning for Homeport's national roll out.
Partner retailers will include both national chains and local specialists. All partnerships will be announced in September.
