Door to Door Organics has five warehouses servicing customers in nine states — Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Michigan, Illinois, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and New York State; it will begin distributing in New York City’s Staten Island in October.
Chad Arnold, president and CEO of Door to Door Organics.
Door to Door focuses on buying organic, natural and local produce as much as possible, said Arnold.
Up to 20% of products are acquired locally, Arnold said, though the percentage can be as high as 50% during the summer when it’s able to buy more local produce.
Door to Door Organics contemplates opening two more distribution centers next year and additional locations in 2015, Arnold said.
“What sets us apart is our ability to empower grocery shopping by integrating it with a person’s lifestyle goals and becoming their good food hub,” said Arnold.
Door to Door is rolling out new features on its website this month.
The guided program will end with a restock page that lists basic items the customer buys regularly, such as milk or coffee, that will enable them to reorder those products with a single click.
The site will suggest products from local farmers and other vendors that might be of interest to buyers, as well as offer enhanced suggestions on how to cook with each product.
