Family Dollar partners with Instacart to launch same-day delivery service

As e-commerce becomes more popular, online grocery business is booming, and the speed of delivery service has become an important factor affecting consumers when buying groceries. In order to speed up delivery, American grocer Family Dollar has partnered with Instacart to launch a nationwide same-day delivery service.

Family Dollar, a subsidiary of Dollar Tree, is one of the fastest growing grocers in the United States, covering a wide range of products, including electronics, household items and personal care products, widely meeting consumers' needs for different types of products.

After the cooperation between the two, customers can get Family Dollar's same-day delivery service after placing an order , and Family Dollar's online business will also be further expanded. It is reported that major retailers such as Bed Bath & Beyond and Dick's Sporting Goods use Instacart to meet the demand of consumers for online orders during the holiday peak season.

“Whether it’s office supplies or household essentials, affordable prices are top of mind for consumers,” said Chris Rogers, vice president of retail at Instacart . “Family Dollar offers a wide variety of affordable items to families across the country, and we’re honored to partner with them to offer same-day delivery nationwide, bringing convenience to consumers.”

It is reported that consumers can now purchase Family Dollar products online through the Instacart mobile app . The new partnership will provide consumers with a convenient way to purchase at a lower cost.

“ Same-day delivery is part of our ongoing effort to satisfy our customers and expand our online presence,” said Mike Witynski, CEO of Dollar Tree . “ As consumer demand for online groceries increases, Dollar Tree will continue to grow. ”

Compared to many other retailers whose sales declined during the epidemic, Family Dollar has been pursuing an aggressive expansion plan and has a growing customer base because it offers more household necessities. As of the third quarter of 2020, Family Dollar 's same-store sales increased by 6.4%, and online sales also increased significantly.

As online groceries grow, fast delivery and fulfillment of orders are key to grocers gaining an advantage. Family Dollar's partnership with Instacart will expand more business, effectively promote the development of online sales, and gain a foothold in the grocery industry.
