US grocery chain Albertson’s yesterday expanded its online grocery service into 31 stores in Oregon.
“Albertson’s is excited to expand this convenient new service to Oregon,” said Mike Clawson, VP of Albertson’s Northwest Division.
“We are convinced we have the right model and customer service to succeed in this market, meeting our customers’ high expectations for quality and service.”
In November 1999, Albertson’s was the first national brick-and- mortar food and drug store company to launch its own grocery delivery Web site when Albertsons.com entered the Seattle market. The company expanded the service to San Diego County in October 2001, and added the Los Angeles area in February 2002.
By using its brick-and-mortar stores, Albertson’s has evolved its online model to take advantage of its retail grocery expertise, brand recognition and existing infrastructure. The company also promises that customers will never pay more online than they would in an Albertson’s store.
