Natural Grocers Adds Instacart Delivery

Natural Grocers (aka Vitamin Cottage) earlier this week added the option of ordering your groceries to be delivered via Instacart, something also available from Whole Foods. Here's a part of their announcement:

Natural Grocers in Partnership With Instacart to Offer Grocery Delivery

Delivery in Boulder begins today, Tuesday, June 23

BOULDER – June 23, 2015 – Instacart (www.instacart.com), the fast-growing grocery delivery service whose Personal Shoppers hand pick and deliver items from trusted local stores, has partnered with Natural Grocers to provide grocery delivery services to customers in Boulder in as little as one hour. Delivery to Boulder area residents and businesses begins today, Tuesday, June 23.

Natural Grocers will be the sixth Boulder-area grocery store offering delivery service through Instacart. 

Customers can choose from the full selection of Natural Grocers’ local, natural and organic products on the Instacart marketplace. In addition to offering only USDA Certified Organic fresh produce and natural and organic grocery items, customers can find a large selection of body care products and dietary supplements.

“We’re excited to offer Instacart delivery to our customers in Boulder because it is a perfect reflection of the health-conscious consumers we have in Colorado,” said Kemper Isely, co-president of Natural Grocers. “Our partnership with Instacart comes with the added convenience of same-day delivery to a home or office – which is especially valuable to our customers who are busy and don’t have time to make it into our store.”

Customers can place orders online or through Instacart’s iOS and Android apps. Instacart Personal Shoppers receive orders on their smartphone, handpick the items at Natural Grocers and then make the delivery.
