By the end of August 2024, Albertsons will offer free buy online, pick up in-store services at more than 2,000 supermarkets to Instacart shoppers. Additionally, customers of Haggen Food & Pharmacy, operating across Washington State, can now use Instacart for same-day delivery orders. Haggen was the final Albertsons banner to partner with Instacart.

The retailer also has debuted Albertsons Rapid, a virtual convenience store powered by Instacart delivering prepared foods, snacks, drinks, grocery staples and household essentials in as little as 30 minutes from banner stores including Safeway, Albertsons, Shaw’s, Acme, Jewel-Osco, Randalls and Vons. The Albertsons Rapid service charge will be $2.99 per order, but there will be no charge for Instacart+ loyalty program members.

“By expanding our partnership with Instacart to offer pickup services through the Instacart app, we are offering customers another channel to fulfill their shopping needs,” said Stephen Menaquale, SVP, Ecommerce and Fulfillment for Albertsons Cos. “Shoppers are likely driving by one of our stores on their way home from work or after their kid’s soccer practice, and with Instacart pickup services, we are providing a convenient solution for grocery shopping that fits into their busy lives.”

In May 2024 The Home Depot partnered with Instacart for same-day delivery from nearly 2,000 of its stores, and Kohl’s selected Instacart as its exclusive same-day delivery service.
