Walgreens partners with Postmates to expand delivery service to New York

Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc. teamed up with on-demand logistics company Postmates Inc. to expand its delivery service to customers in New York City.

The companies expect the move to address the needs of both their customers. In an Oct. 2 release, Postmates said its customers seek many of the everyday items found at Walgreens and added that orders from convenience and drug stores increased 68% in 2018.

Under the partnership, customers can place their Walgreens orders through the Postmates mobile app or website. The California-based delivery startup will deliver items such as medicine, personal care products and groceries from 174 Walgreens and Duane Reade stores in Manhattan and Brooklyn.

Postmates, which operates in more than 3,500 cities across the U.S., has also previously teamed up with other companies such as Ford Motor Co. and Walmart Inc. to explore retail delivery solutions using autonomous vehicles.
