Lakeland Fla-based Publix Super Markets Inc. plans to have grocery delivery in 45 markets by the end of 2017, and same-day delivery by the end of 2020.
The company is working with San Francisco-based Instacart to make it happen, says Laurie Douglas, Publix senior vide president and chief information officer, in a news release.
“The overwhelming response of our customers has proven that Instacart and Publix are a strong, dynamic team,” she says. “We are excited to take the next steps in building our unique relationship to dramatically grow the service in our markets.”
Publix launched the service a year ago via delivery.publix.com.
