Publix offering curbside deliveries in two Florida stores
Publix is testing curbside grocery pickup at two of its stores in Florida. The tests are starting today (28 September) at the Publix stores in Wesley Chapel and Valrico. In addition, Metro-Atlanta stores will begin testing curbside pickup by the end of this year.
Customers place their orders on publix.com/curbside and can choose curbside pickup or delivery at check out. Curbside orders will be shopped and carried to customers’ vehicles by Publix associates.
“We’ve had great success with Publix Delivery powered by Instacart, and the demand for online grocery services has continued to grow. So we’re excited to test Publix Curbside and learn more about how to best meet the evolving needs of our customers,” said Maria Brous, director of media and community relations.
Publix has been rolling out grocery delivery since July 2016. By the end of this year, the company anticipates that Publix Delivery will be available from more than 90% of its stores.
Publix has 1,155 stores in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, South Carolina, North Carolina and Virginia.
