Users will be able to shop 90 company-owned grocery stores across Iowa, Indiana, Michigan, Nebraska, North Dakota and Ohio and have groceries and essential household items delivered in as soon as an hour.
“Expanding strategic relationships with innovative brands such as Shipt allows us to continue delivering the ingredients for a better life,” said Masiar Tayebi, EVP and chief strategy and information officer. “We are proud to work together to bring easy, convenient solutions to our customers through this partnership, and we look forward to the opportunity to serve even more new shoppers through the Shipt app and website.”
Since April 2021, Shipt has served as a last-mile delivery provider for SpartanNash, delivering grocery orders placed with Fast Lane to consumers’ homes. The SpartanNash retail banners listed on the Shipt platform include D&W Fresh Market, Family Fare, Forest Hills Foods, Martin’s Super Markets, Supermercado Nuestra Familia and VG’s Grocery.
“We are so excited to have SpartanNash’s incredible lineup of grocery stores join the Shipt marketplace,” said Rina Hurst, chief business officer.
“With the busy holiday season around the corner, we want to ensure our loyal customer base is set up for success, and that means meeting them where they are. And in this case, they’re in the Midwest. We already have a strong relationship with SpartanNash and look forward to supporting each other in our expanded partnership on the Shipt marketplace through this holiday season and beyond.”
