Food Lion home delivery expands to Orangeburg area

SALISBURY, N.C. — With more shoppers opting to save time by ordering groceries online, Food Lion is making it easier for customers in South Carolina, Delaware, Kentucky, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and West Virginia to have groceries delivered right to their door.

Orangeburg, Calhoun and Bamberg County customers are among those who now can use the Food Lion To Go website or the Food Lion To Go app to confirm availability and place orders. The delivery fee will be waived for the first order of $35 or more placed on the Food Lion To Go website or app.

With the click of a button, Food Lion Home Delivery, powered by Instacart, allows customers to shop without having to leave their homes. The online service allows customers to place an order and have their groceries delivered to their front door.

Food Lion continues to expand this service across the towns and cities it serves. With the availability of the service at more stores, the omnichannel retailer now offers Food Lion to Go Pickup or Home Delivery in more than 90% of its 10-state operating area.

“With the summer months approaching, we are excited to expand our Food Lion To Go Home Delivery services,” said Evan Harding, director of Digital and eCommerce, Food Lion. “By delivering on our commitment to making grocery shopping easy and convenient, home delivery allows our customers to spend more time on what matters most to them.”

Additionally, by linking their personal Food Lion MVP savings loyalty card to their account, Food Lion customers can use digital coupons and redeem their “Shop & Earn” MVP rewards program savings. Customers can also view their accumulated Shop & Earn rewards on their checkout screen and see which clipped digital coupons will be applied to their order. This is in addition to their MVP discounts, in-store promotions and weekly savings specials.

Customers can visit Food Lion Home Delivery or open the Instacart mobile app on their iPhone or Android device. They enter their zip code and select their local Food Lion store, add items to a virtual cart, choose a delivery window (within one hour, within two hours, or some scheduled time in the future) and check out.

A shopper accepts the order on his/her smartphone, uses the Instacart shopper app to guide them through shopping, and then delivers the order to the customer in the designated delivery time frame.
