But now delivery platforms offer a new path for retailers. Instacart, DoorDash, Uber, and Shipt have partnered with hundreds of retailers to offer same-day delivery. The bulk of these partnerships are in the grocery and convenience categories, but the delivery platforms also work with retailers like Bed Bath & Beyond, Best Buy, Lowe’s, PetSmart, and Sephora.
Delivery companies’ share of total US digital grocery sales is approaching 30%, according to our forecast. This includes sales of food and beverages, pet food, household cleaning products, personal care products, and other household consumables.
