Family Dollar has partnered with Instacart to provide delivery for more than 6,000 of its stores across the U.S., reports Progressive Grocer. Customers have access to same-day delivery of household goods, pantry and baby essentials, personal care items, and more.
This follows a successful pilot with 275 stores, initially launched in late 2020.
"Providing same-day delivery is another example of our efforts to better meet the evolving needs of our Family Dollar shoppers," said Mike Witynski, president and CEO of Dollar Tree Inc. "We are encouraged by the initial results of our pilot stores and are pleased to expand the Instacart platform to more than 6,000 Family Dollar stores across the country."
"Family Dollar offers a variety of low-cost items for the entire family, and we're proud to partner with them to offer same-day delivery nationwide,” added Chris Rogers, VP of retail at Instacart. “As one of the nation's fastest-growing retailers, we're excited to help Family Dollar connect with and serve the delivery needs of their customers, and look forward to partnering with them to offer even more selection and choice to customers on the Instacart marketplace."
