Meijer brings grocery to customers' doorsteps

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Looking to foray into online sales, Meijer is launching a new grocery service for its customers.

MeijerDoorstepGrocer.com will offer customers thousands of grocery and drug store items, many of them available in single-pack or smaller sizes. Meijer initially will offer about 5,000 items on its website with no minimum order requirement for delivery, the company said. For a limited time, customers will have the opportunity to save on orders that exceed $100. Shipping costs start at $7.95.

"This is a very important step for our e-commerce operations," said Rick Keyes, EVP supply chain operations and e-commerce for Meijer. "While we have provided bulk grocery and multipack products in the past, Meijer is now able to serve a broader audience with a greater number of selections. This new site will truly have something for everyone, including international customers."
