DoorDash grocery

Since launching on-demand grocery delivery in 2020, DoorDash continues to bring new grocers onto its platform, including the recent additions of Fresh Encounter, Fruitful Yield, Plum Market, Robért Fresh Market and Stew Leonard’s.

In the past year, the company has added all Ahold Delhaize USA banners, Haggen, H Mart, La Michoacana, Rouses Markets, Save A Lot, Vallarta Supermarkets, all Wakefern Food Corp. banners and Wegmans.

“It has been a monumental year for DoorDash’s grocery business with many beloved grocers – from the nation’s largest supermarket chains to neighborhood favorites – joining the platform,” said Fuad Hannon, VP of new verticals at DoorDash.

“On-demand delivery continues to play an essential role in consumers’ daily routines as the percentage of consumers that shop across grocery on DoorDash has continued to grow significantly. We’re proud to partner with these beloved local grocers so consumers can enjoy the best of their neighborhoods – whether they’re ordering from their staple grocer or discovering a new favorite.”
