“Over the past year we’ve seen incredible demand in the St. Louis area,” said Dave Osborne, Instacart General Manager. “We strive to provide the freshest, highest quality groceries to our customers.”

“Expansion into St. Louis gives us an opportunity to begin servicing consumers in the Missouri market. We’re also excited to build a world-class shopper community, where we can offer fun and flexible jobs for our shoppers, who ultimately deliver this amazing service to the community.”

How Instacart Works:

Customers go online to www.instacart.com or open the Instacart mobile app, select their city and store, add items to a virtual cart, and then choose a delivery window (within one hour, within two hours, or up to seven days in advance) and then check out. An Instacart Personal Shopper accepts the order on his/her smartphone, uses the Instacart Shopper app to guide them through shopping, and then delivers the order to the customer in the designated delivery timeframe.
