There’s a battle waging in grocery.
And its the biggest one EVER.
You may love it. You may hate it.
But facts don’t care what we like.
Delivery surged over 70% in May.
You read that right. 70%.
𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴. 𝘐𝘴. 𝘏𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘤.
Here’s the crazy part.
Total E-Com was only up 27% for the month.
That’s delivery, curbside, and ship-to-home.
𝘖𝘯𝘭𝘺… as if that’s not already a massive jump.
But ALL of that growth came through delivery.
Which was up 70% from May of 2024.
According to a report by Brick Meets Click.
70 big ones. 𝘞𝘰𝘸.
👉 This is a shift in power dynamics.
This battle is being fought in your 3rd Party Delivery:
Instacart
DoorDash
UberEats
But it’s also being fought in your 1st party grocery Apps:
Whole Foods
Albertsons
Walmart
Sprouts
Costco
Kroger
Target
Sam’s
HEB
BJ’s
Every single one of those is an 𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘦𝘳𝘤𝘦 play.
And your competitors are taking market share.
This 𝘪𝘴𝘯’𝘵 about committing a budget.
This 𝘪𝘴𝘯’𝘵 about someone managing your budget.
This 𝘪𝘴 about the greatest shift in shopping behavior in well over a decade.
And it 𝘪𝘴 about winning the race for market share.
In the biggest land grab since early Amazon.
