The Chicagoland-based companies team up to
offer on-demand delivery of thousands of everyday
essentials
CHICAGO and DEERFIELD, Ill., Feb. 20,
2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Grubhub announced today
that it has teamed up with Walgreens to bring Walgreens and
Duane Reade locations nationwide to
its marketplace. Through this collaboration, customers have
access to 15,000 items for on-demand delivery — including
beauty, health and wellness, snacks, personal care, household
items, toys, and more.
Grubhub is enhancing the customer experience by expanding its
marketplace offerings to include Walgreens and Duane Reade, broadening access to everyday
essentials. Grubhub's data shows that customers who shop from
convenience merchants on Grubhub order nearly three times more per
month than those who don't, making them valuable users of the
Grubhub marketplace.
"We're excited to add Walgreens and Duane Reade to offer customers a robust
selection of convenience retailers on Grubhub," said Craig Whitmer, vice president of new verticals
at Grubhub. "As a Chicago-based
company, working with another hometown favorite is particularly
special. The addition of these two brands helps us scale our
convenience offerings across the country with a strong focus on key
markets like Chicago and
New York City, and we look forward
to delivering even more value and convenience to our shared
communities."
"Customers today expect to get what they want, when they want
it, how they want it," said Sharmila
Sudhakar, group vice president of digital commerce and omni
experience at Walgreens. "The addition of Grubhub to Walgreens'
growing roster of delivery partners helps meet that expectation and
offers shoppers another simple and trusted same-day solution to get
the essentials they need."
