Albertsons ends online delivery

Minneapolis Albertsons, a division of Supervalu, announced that it is discontinuing deliveries of online orders in all of its markets.

Shoppers will still be able to place orders online, but they will now pick up their groceries at local stores. Albertsons made the decision based on customer feedback that reported they find it easier to pick up their orders.

“While delivery is perceived as an extra convenience for some, more than 60% of customers told us that in-store pick up would help make their lives more convenient," said Haley Meyer, Supervalu spokeswoman.

Supervalu is also ceasing home delivery for its Acmemarkets.com home shopping service.
