Meijer will begin offering home delivery in Detroit and Southeastern Michigan via app-based Shipt, on Sept. 15.
Area users will be able to choose from 55,000 items available at 25 participating Meijer stores, and select a one-hour delivery window.
A Shipt shopper will then hand-pick their items and deliver them in as little as one hour after the order is placed. The service is membership based with annual and monthly options available.
For $99 a year, orders over $35 are delivered for free. Meijer shoppers who subscribe prior to Sept. 15 will receive $25 off their first order.
Because most Meijer stores are open 24 hours a day, Shipt deliveries will be available at some Meijer locations 24 hours a day, seven days a week with the exception of certain holidays once the service launches in the Detroit area.
“This is yet one more option to make shopping at Meijer easier for our customers,” said Michael Ross, VP of digital shopping and customer marketing for Meijer, in a statement. “We believe our relationship with Shipt will provide many of our customers an all-encompassing service that will save them time and add a new convenience when shopping at Meijer.”
