Kroger Delivery Expands in Greater Nashville and Chicago
Kroger recently opened two new delivery-only facilities in the greater Nashville area and in the Chicago metro area, making Kroger Delivery available to more customers in Tennessee and Illinois. Both locations will serve as last-mile, cross-dock locations enabling a seamless extension of regional fulfillment centers, the grocery retailer said in a statement.
Local shoppers in these areas will also have access to Kroger's loyalty membership program Boost, which launched nationwide last month. The tiered program gives customers the choice of two annual membership levels and provides customers unlimited free grocery delivery on orders of $35 or more.
