Chain-wide partnership will provide customers
access to essential items during COVID-19
Today, Rite Aid (NYSE: RAD) announced a new partnership with
Instacart, which will allow customers to conveniently order and
receive essential healthcare and grocery items delivered directly
to their homes during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond.
Instacart delivery is now available from Rite Aid’s more than
2,400 locations across 18 states. Customers can visit
https://delivery.riteaid.com or https://www.instacart.com/rite-aid,
where they can access a full catalog of healthcare and grocery
products from their local store, excluding prescription
medications. All Instacart orders now default to “Leave at My Door
Delivery,” in order to maintain social distance and allow customers
to receive deliveries safely.
“At Rite Aid, we are focused on providing our customers and
communities with the essentials they need during these
unprecedented times,” said Jim Peters, chief operating officer,
Rite Aid. “To further enhance our services, we have teamed up with
Instacart to offer our customers another convenient method of
shopping at Rite Aid from the safety and comfort of home.”
“We know people and families are depending on delivery to get
their groceries and household essentials now more than ever, and
we’re proud to partner with Rite Aid to offer customers another
stay-at-home shopping alternative in the wake of COVID-19,” said
Nilam Ganenthiran, president of Instacart. “Bringing Rite Aid’s
broad selection of healthcare and grocery products online will give
customers more access to the goods they need, delivered directly
from the store to their door.”
Through Rite Aid’s new Instacart delivery service, customers can
shop for the essential products and groceries they need online. An
Instacart personal shopper will pick, pack and deliver available
products within the customer’s designated timeframe, offering an
efficient alternative to in-store shopping.
