More than 14,000 Dollar General and Popshelf locations are being added to the Uber Eats platform as part of a partnership between Uber Technologies Inc. and Dollar General Corp.
Starting Aug. 8 and expanding this month, Dollar General and Popshelf customers can tap to order items delivered straight to their door — on-demand or scheduled — via Uber Eats, according to the companies.
“Our customers will enjoy even greater convenience through our Uber Eats partnership, accessing everything from food to essential household items, saving them valuable time and money,” says Tony Rogers, chief marketing officer for Dollar General. “Providing communities with affordable, fresh and accessible food options delivered right to their front door is aligned with our mission of serving others.”
To mark the launch, Uber Eats is offering 40% off Dollar General and Popshelf orders of $20 or more (up to $10) using the code 40GENERAL. Uber One members have $0 delivery fees on eligible orders and other exclusive savings.
“Retailers today are navigating a rapidly changing landscape — consumers expect convenience, speed and accessibility like never before,” says Hashim Amin, head of grocery and retail for Uber. “Through this partnership, Dollar General and Uber Eats are meeting those expectations. We’re proud to help extend Dollar General’s reach into the on-demand economy and to help retailers like DG serve their customers in more dynamic and flexible ways.”
