Key Food Stores Co-Operative has launched an on-demand grocery delivery partnership with Uber Eats. More than 300 locations across the Northeast and Florida are now participating in the program, allowing customers to order directly through the app.
Why it matters
This partnership expands the digital access of over 300 family-owned supermarkets, providing a modern alternative to traditional shopping for customers. It reflects a shift toward integrating independent grocers into established national delivery networks to support business growth.
The partnership includes over 300 member stores out of the 480 total family-owned supermarkets within the co-operative. While these locations are currently active, the final rollout of the service across all member stores remains in progress.

The details
Member supermarkets use the Uber Eats marketplace platform to provide on-demand grocery delivery to customers.
