ShopRite is leasing an additional 1,200 square feet in Niskayuna, New York, due to the growing popularity of its shop-from-home service.
The company moved into the space next to its 55,000-square-foot supermarket at ShopRite Plaza off Balltown Road, said Tom Urtz, vice president of human resources and community affairs.
“The overwhelming success of our ShopRite from Home service has created the need to expand the department,” Urtz said. “We are pleased that this opportunity has presented itself so we can better serve the needs of our loyal customers.”
The program enables customers to order groceries online and have the items delivered to their home for an extra fee. ShopRite started offering the service when the store opened in October 2011, marking the chain’s return to the Albany region for the first time in 20 years.
