You can now order your groceries in Montreal and Toronto via your Uber app.
San Francisco-based Uber Technologies announced on Tuesday that it is launching a new service in Montreal, Toronto and 16 Latin American cities that allows Uber users to order from grocery stores, including Metro and IGA. You can order using the Uber and Uber Eats apps.
“We want to make life easier for our users,” said Jonathan Hamel, manager of public affairs in Quebec for Uber, in a phone interview Tuesday. “So now we’re adding this new product.”
The service in Montreal will also allow people to order from Jean Coutu, Walmart, Première Moisson, Costco, Canadian Tire, Sephora, Mondou and Yves Rocher.
You can also select what time of day you’d like the delivery to arrive.
Uber is launching the service in partnership with Cornershop, a Chilean grocery-delivery startup. In 2019, it was announced that Uber had acquired a majority stake in Cornershop, a deal that is expected to close in the coming days. The purchase price has not been revealed.
