Lowe’s is the first dedicated home improvement partner available on the Instacart marketplace, addressing a growing consumer need as both home improvement product purchases and demand for online delivery continue.
“People across North America have shown they’re embracing the ‘do it yourself’ mentality, and demand for home improvement essentials on our platform grew by more than 50 percent in 2021 compared to 2020,” said Chris Rogers, vice president of retail at Instacart. “Today, we’re proud to welcome Lowe’s to the Instacart marketplace, delivering essential items customers need to complete their projects without leaving their homes. We’re excited to help Lowe’s connect with consumers in a new way, and we look forward to growing our partnership over the coming months.”
