Instacart, North America's leading grocery technology company, and ALDI, one of America's fastest-growing retailers, announced ALDI Express.
This new Instacart-powered virtual convenience store gets ALDI-exclusive products to customers' doors quicker than ever. From convenience items such as prepared foods, snacks and drinks to grocery staples and household essentials, ALDI Express gives customers access to nearly 2,000 of the most-shopped ALDI items, delivered in as fast as 30 minutes.
ALDI Express convenience delivery is now available to customers from more than 2,100 ALDI locations across the country.
"We know our customers live hectic lives, and sometimes that means they don't have time to make it to the grocery store, even for a quick trip. Through ALDI Express, we're making shopping more convenient so you can satisfy a craving or get a missing ingredient in minutes," said Scott Patton, VP of National Buying at ALDI.
Patton continued that ALDI, in partnership with Instacart, will support the business in finding ways to innovate and make the online grocery experience even more effortless and accessible.
"We're proud to deepen our partnership with ALDI by introducing ALDI Express. With this launch, we're making it easier for customers nationwide to get their favourite ALDI staples delivered faster than ever before," said Ryan Hamburger, Vice President of Retail at Instacart.
Hamburger highlighted the partnership underpinned by a business understanding of consumer demand and the importance of convenience and efficiency.
“We know how important it is to get what you need when you want it - whether it's a last-minute delivery for a missing dinner ingredient, milk for the baby, or simply wanting a late-night snack."
ALDI began offering delivery services via Instacart in 2017. Instacart now delivers from over 2,200 ALDI stores and powers pickup for over 1,500 ALDI stores nationwide.
The companies expanded their partnership in 2018 to include alcohol delivery, and ALDI was one of the first retailers to accept EBT SNAP online through Instacart in November 2020.
