Loblaw Experiments With Drive-Through

Loblaw Companies Ltd. is preparing to pilot a grocery click-and-collect program, which will allow shoppers to order online and pick up their completed order at stores.

The Loblaws at 301 High Tech Rd. in Richmond Hill has been set up with a bright orange click-and-collect area that includes assigned parking. Customers will be able to have the groceries they chose and pay for online, loaded into their vehicles.

Loblaws announced earlier this year that it would pilot a click-and-collect program, but provided few details. A company spokesman declined to elaborate on Tuesday, although he did confirm that Richmond Hill will be the first location to offer the new service.
