ACME Markets, Food City, Hy-Vee, Jewel-Osco, Kings Food
Markets, Pavilions, Randalls, Shaw’s, Sprouts Farmers Market, Star
Market, Stater Bros. Markets, Tom Thumb, and Vons will offer
eligible consumers more choices to leverage their SNAP/EBT benefits
when ordering online groceries from coast to coast. Consumers can
purchase locally-grown produce, prime cut meats, the freshest fish,
imported cheeses, international products, a wide selection of
natural and organic foods, including bulk foods and more at
affordable prices. DoorDash is one of the largest online
marketplaces to offer SNAP/EBT recipients access to grocery
delivery across the country.
We are proud to continue to broaden food access by offering
SNAP/EBT to more than 11 million people who are living in food
deserts, and over 30 million people living in communities where
over 1 in 10 households receive SNAP/EBT benefits, according to
data compiled by DoorDash. Since our launch last year with multiple
grocery partners including ALDI, Albertsons, Safeway, Meijer,
and participating 7-Eleven® stores:
- Over 1 in 6 SNAP deliveries on DoorDash have been made to
consumers living in food deserts;
- 49% of SNAP deliveries on DoorDash have been made to consumers
living in low-income communities;
- 28% of SNAP deliveries on DoorDash have been made to consumers
living in census tracts with a higher rate of seniors than the
national average (16%); and
- 47% of SNAP deliveries on DoorDash have been made to consumers
living in census tracts with higher rates of people with
disabilities than the national average (12.7%).
DoorDash’s mission has been to empower local economies. We’re
proud that we’ve largely fulfilled our commitment as part of the
White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition, and Health and provide
on-demand delivery of SNAP-eligible groceries to people across all
50 states and DC.
DoorDash’s work to broaden food access is also undergirded by
Project DASH, our initiative to empower social impact
organizations—such as food banks and pantries—to work with Dashers
and use DoorDash technology to provide local delivery to their
communities. Since 2018, Project DASH has powered more than 5
million deliveries of an estimated 80 million meals.
To offer even more savings to consumers, we’re excited to extend
our two free months of DashPass offer to new DoorDash customers
when they upload their SNAP/EBT card*. DashPass members can access
thousands of restaurants, grocery and convenience stores at
affordable prices, with $0 delivery fees and reduced service fees
on eligible orders. DashPass members save $5 per eligible order on
average.
Whether it's delivering SNAP-eligible groceries or charitable
food to people experiencing food insecurity, we’re excited to
continue to provide new ways for everyone to access food through
DoorDash. In addition to SNAP, we have numerous cost-effective
options to help consumers save on their next order – learn more
