Instacart Inc. more than doubled the number of people who pick and deliver groceries to customers over the last few weeks and said it will add an additional 250,000 in the next two months, a response to unprecedented demand for the service.
The San Francisco-based startup said Thursday that it had quickly surpassed last month’s goal to add 300,000 workers, an aggressive target that even exceeded one set by Amazon.com Inc. Instacart now has more than 500,000 in total but continues to be overwhelmed by demand. Order volume last week was up sixfold from a year ago, the company said.
For the next recruitment spree, Instacart will focus on six areas with the highest demand: California, Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania, Toronto and Washington, D.C. The company aims to bring back its offering of same-day or even one-hour delivery. Currently, deliveries can take a week or two, a time frame that has frustrated customers and bedeviled the company since the coronavirus pandemic hit.
