Fresh Street, a Chicago-based grocery chain, has announced the launch of its first integrated online platform for grocery pickups, which will be available through a mobile app and web browser starting March 18. According to the company, the new digital integration represents Fresh Street's desire to re-think modern-day grocery shopping by offering a more convenient solution for digital-savvy customers.
The new app will offer customers access to over 4,000 products, including local and national options. After choosing their products, customers will be able to pick up their order in 30 minutes or less at Fresh Street's 6191 N. Lincoln Ave. location.
“My family and I have experienced the frustrations and inconveniences that plague current online grocery options,” said Mike Sayles, CEO of Fresh Street. “We started Fresh Street by thinking through these problems with a blank sheet of paper and a focus on providing the best possible experience for the online grocery shopper. This enables us to offer competitive prices, brands that families know and love, an easy-to-use website/app, and a convenient pickup experience.”
