Schnucks Markets, Inc. announced Monday that customers can now have groceries delivered as fast as 30 minutes.

“Schnucks Now” is a “new online grocery shopping method, ideal for smaller orders, focused on fulfilling convenience orders fast,” according to a press release.

Customers are able to shop for fresh groceries, pantry and household items, alcohol, meals and more for delivery through the new service, which is in partnership with Instacart.

Schnucks Now orders can be placed online at schnucksnow.com with delivery available in all Schnucks markets.

The service is available during regular store hours with a $10 minimum purchase. Pricing on goods may differ from in-store pricing, according to the release. Service charges apply, and in-store coupons, sales and promotions aren’t valid on Schnucks Now orders.

“We’re dedicated to finding more ways to make the online grocery experience accessible and convenient, and we’re proud to launch Schnucks Now to give customers a new, easy way to get what they need fast,” Ryan Hamburger, Vice President of Retail Partnerships at Instacart, stated in the release.

“Whether it’s a weekly grocery stock up or simply a last minute dinner ingredient, customers now have access to their favorite retailer no matter the reason.”

The service is accessible via the Schnucks Rewards app and the Instacart Convenience Hub, according to the release.

“Schnucks is always looking for new ways to streamline our digital experience and provide value and convenience to our customers,” Schnucks Senior Director Digital Experience Chace MacMullan stated in the release.

“We are excited to introduce this new service to meet our customers’ urgent grocery needs and proud to expand on our current delivery options available through Schnucks Delivers,” continued MacMullan.
