Meijer is adding alcohol to its delivery service.

Starting today, Ohio shoppers can have beer and wine, along with 70,000 grocery and daily items delivered from local Meijer stores through Shipt.

The retailer first launched the delivery option in Ohio last year. Many retailers are partnering with third parties in a race to provide the best grocery delivery sparked by Amazon acquiring Whole Foods Market last year.

“We’ve received an incredible amount of feedback from customers wanting to take advantage of our large selection of craft beers and wine,” said Keith Rothstein, group vice president of merchandise services for Meijer. “We think this enhances the level of convenience our home delivery customers in Ohio can enjoy and allows them to take more advantage of what our stores have to offer.”

Valid identification is required to place and receive grocery orders that include alcohol.

The annual memberships are $99 and monthly memberships are $14 . New members get two weeks free plus $15 off their first order.
