DoorDash kicked off its expanded partnership with Wegmans Food Markets by offering on-demand delivery from the supermarket’s Maryland stores, with Wegmans locations in Virginia, North Carolina, New Jersey, Delaware and upstate New York available in the coming days and more stores to follow. DoorDash already had been providing delivery of ready-made meals from Wegmans Meals2Go, and will now make the chain’s produce, bakery items and other items available on the DoorDash Marketplace.
“DoorDash has been a great partner for our Meals 2GO program, and expanding our offering to include grocery delivery allows us to meet our customers where they are,” said Erica Tickle, VP of Marketing and Digital Growth at Wegmans in a statement. “Our goal is to make meals easy and help our customers live healthier, better lives through exceptional food. Expanding our delivery network is just one way we’re able to continue delivering on that mission.”
Additionally, DoorDash has added four regional grocery chains to its portfolio:
- Kowalski’s: A local favorite in the greater Minneapolis-St. Paul area since 1983, offering naturally raised meats, locally sourced organic produce, hard-to-find specialty products, and more from all 11 locations;
- Mar-Val Food Stores: A family-owned grocer focused on supporting rural communities across California, Mar-Val Food Stores offers delivery from its nine locations;
- Geissler’s Supermarket: A family-owned cornerstone for over 100 years in Connecticut and Massachusetts, Geissler’s offers high-quality products from local farmers and suppliers from its seven locations for delivery on DoorDash; and
- Milam’s Markets: A Miami-Dade staple for 40 years, Milam’s Markets six locations will be available on the platform in the coming weeks.
Like its competitors Uber Eats and Instacart, DoorDash has been adding both food and non-food retailers to its marketplace. In recent months DoorDash added Mattress Firm, Aveda, H Mart and Lowe’s to its roster of merchants and expanded its relationship with Sephora.
