Many people have turned to the internet for help during the pandemic. The internet has been used for a variety of reasons, such as activism, signing petitions, sharing talent videos, and finding your loved ones. Even though all these activities had existed before the advent of the pandemic, their presence just multiplied during the last two years.
The pandemic definitely increased online shopping and deliveries. People are probably lazy, but it’s definitely easier to get things delivered to you at your doorsteps with just a few clicks.
Instacart is a grocery delivery service provider that has become very popular in the United States during the pandemic. With so many people avoiding public places, and with grocery stores running low on supplies, Instacart has been a lifesaver for many. Not only does it provide groceries quickly and easily, but it also allows customers to order whatever they want, without having to worry about specific ingredients or quantities. ..
What is Instacart?
Instacart is a grocery pick up and delivery service, operating in the United States and Canada. It was founded in 2012 by two entrepreneurs, David and Jonathan Levy. As of 2021, it serves approximately 5,500 cities in the US and Canada. The company’s revenue is around $1.5 billion (based on the data of 2020).
The grocery delivery app lets customers shop from the grocery stores located in their neighborhood and deliver it to them. The grocery delivery app partners with local shops, pharmacies, membership stores, and supermarkets.
To order from Instacart, first create an Instacart account and select the product you would like to purchase. Then, input your shipping information and click on the “Order” button.
One can order from Instacart using their official website or their app that can be easily found in the play store.
The application creates a “virtual shopping cart” where the selected items are placed, and later a “personal shopper” who fills them in real life. The app provides delivery within 5 hours, the same day. However, people can opt for later delivery, such as after a day or two.

If the “shopper” did not include and deliver a replacement that was approved by the customer through the platform, the customer may have a legal right to file a complaint with the company.
