In a move that will strengthen Uber Eats’ grocery selection in eight Midwest states, the company has announced a new partnership with Hy-Vee for on-demand and scheduled deliveries.
More than 260 Hy-Vee grocery and liquor stores in Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, South Dakota and Wisconsin will be available to shop through Uber and Uber Eats.
“Uber Eats has been growing in popularity among many of our customers, making this partnership a win-win for both parties,” said Aaron Wiese, Hy-Vee’s president.
“As we expand our offerings, we want to be where our customers are comfortable placing an online order. This launch allows us another avenue to offer our products and best serve the needs of our shoppers.”
To celebrate the arrangement – and in recognition of Uber Eats’ third year as the official on-demand food delivery partner of the National Football League – Uber Eats is holding a sweepstakes for customers ordering from Hy-Vee.
They can receive 50 percent off (up to $40) on their first order of $50 or more (before taxes and fees) and the chance to enter the Uber Eats 2023 NFL Kickoff Tickets sweepstakes for the chance to win tickets to the 2023 NFL Kickoff on Sept. 7, courtesy of Uber Eats.
“Hy-Vee is a beloved hometown brand, and we’re thrilled to welcome them onto Uber Eats,” said Christian Freese, head of grocery and new verticals across the U.S. and Canada.
“Together we know we can make it easier than ever to have groceries and alcohol items delivered on-demand to doorsteps across the Midwest – and we’re especially excited to be offering both consumers and couriers across the region the chance to attend one of the hottest kickoff games of the NFL season.”
Since launching in July 2020, Uber has seen consistent growth in the U.S. for its grocery category through partnerships with the Albertsons Companies, Meijer, Kroger, SpartanNash, Grocery Outlet and other regional and national grocers.
