Uber has added four more regional grocery brands to the Uber Eats marketplace, extending its grocery delivery footprint with Busch’s Fresh Food Market, Hays, Lowe’s Market and Piggly Wiggly.
Shoppers can order from participating stores through the Uber Eats, Uber and Postmates apps, with on-demand and scheduled delivery and real-time tracking. The additions continue a steady run of regional grocery signings for Uber Eats, which has added Stater Bros., Kowalski’s, Big Y, King Kullen, Citarella, Rouses and others over the past year.
“When it comes to grocery shopping, local preference matters,” said Hashim Amin, head of grocery and retail for North America at Uber. “These new partnerships help us bring more of those local favorites to Uber Eats while creating new opportunities for grocers to grow their business.”
