Target has plans to expand its fresh grocery pickup service, which is now in limited locations. The company intends to have this service available at more stores across the country by the end of the year.<\/p>\n
The Planned Expansion <\/strong><\/p>\n Target estimated that by the end of June, it would have more than 400 stores with the fresh grocery pickup service. By the holidays, this figure should reach 1,500 stores.<\/p>\n The program was originally piloted early on in March, but Target decided to temporarily pause it so the company could instead focus on responding correctly to the pandemic. As of May, Target had restarted the pilot in the Twin Cities and had already extended it to Kansas City.<\/p>\n About the Fresh Grocery Program<\/strong><\/p>\n The fresh grocery program is part of the in-store and curbside pickup services. It is entirely free and does not have a minimum order. The fresh grocery pickup will include more than 750 products, spanning frozen, meat, produce, bakery, and dairy. This includes products from the Good & Gather private label and Boar\u2019s Head deli line.<\/p>\n This is in addition to the over 250,000 products that Target already offers for pickup, including non-perishable grocery products, home goods, and apparel.<\/p>\n
