BJ’s introduces same-day liquor delivery

BJ’s Wholesale Club is offering same-day delivery of beer, wine and spirits in six states.

The discount club retailer is now making same-day deliveries of beer, wine and spirits from stores in select ZIP codes in Virginia, Florida, Connecticut, Massachusetts and North Carolina that sell alcohol. In addition, BJ’s stores that sell beer, wine and low-proof spirits in select ZIP codes in Ohio are also making same-day alcohol deliveries.

BJ’s is timing its expanded availability of same-day alcohol deliveries for the upcoming holiday season. In partnership with Instacart, BJ’s has already offered same-day delivery on thousands of items, including premium deli meats and cheeses, produce, meat and frozen foods; as well as household items like diapers, paper goods, nutritional supplements and pet supplies, at the same discount prices available in-store.

“We’re focused on making it even more convenient for our members to shop and save,” said Rafeh Masood, senior VP and chief digital officer, BJ’s Wholesale Club. “That’s why we’re excited to expand our same-day delivery service to include beer, wine and spirits, giving our members added convenience as they prepare for the busy holiday season.”

One of BJ’s chief discount club rivals, Sam’s Club, also recently launched same-day alcohol delivery at select stores in 12 states through a partnership with Instacart. Sam’s Club parent Walmart also delivers alcohol in select markets through its online grocery service. Target also offers the same.

BJ’s currently operates 217 stores and 142 BJ's Gas locations in 16 states.
