Shipt

Overview

Shipt is a subscription-based online grocery delivery and personal shopping service founded in 2014 in Birmingham, Alabama. Acquired by Target Corporation in 2017, Shipt operates as an independent subsidiary. The company connects local grocery stores with customers through a mobile app, offering same-day delivery without the need for its own warehouses.

Shipt provides a wide range of items, including fresh groceries, household essentials, electronics, and baby clothes. Customers can place orders via the app, where personal shoppers select and deliver items directly to their doors. The service has expanded significantly since its inception, now reaching over 80% of U.S. households in 5,000 cities and partnering with more than 130 retailers. Shipt emphasizes personalized service and convenience, catering to busy families and consumers looking for an efficient shopping experience.
