PSFK: Genuardi's.com launched their home-delivery service today in some of regions of Philadelphia. Customers get to specify how ripe they want their fruits and how thick they want their steaks. Customers get free delivery on their first order. -Via Philadelphia InquirerAcme started home-delivery last year. And now grocers like Genuardi's are offering such services.
The deliveries are done in a 2-4 hour timeframe. The minimum order is $50 at Genuardi's and the delivery charge is $9.95---so the home-delivery option is useful only for ordering huge bulk orders as they charge only $4.95 for orders over $150.
Will this be the future of grocery stores? This makes life a lot easier for customers who want to save time by ordering a months worth of groceries by a click-- and right to their doorstep. This model would work best in big cities and at universites where a large number of customers don't own cars. Maybe grocers should start thinking in this direction.
