Nothing is worse than being in the middle of cooking a huge breakfast spread, only to realize you forgot to buy a pack of bacon. Or you're short that one extra cup of milk.
In the past, your options were to stop everything and run to the store or try to make some questionable substitution you found via a desperate Google search.
Now, there's a third option: instant grocery delivery. Some big box stores offer curbside pickup or delivery, but those options still require planning ahead or leaving the house. With Food Rocket, you don't even have to put on real pants.
Why Food Rocket is the Answer to Our Grocery-Getting Prayers
Pandemic or not, going to the grocery store is not on our list of "fun ways to spend an afternoon." It's always crowded, and there's inevitably one important thing you forget to buy.
Enter Food Rocket. They're a super-fast grocery delivery service that is changing how San Francisco locals shop for groceries.
You can download the app on iOS or Android. All you have to do is add the groceries you need to your cart, check out, and in 15 minutes or less, you can expect the order at your front door!
Seriously, it's that easy. No shoes, makeup or kid-wrangling required.
The secret to their speed is that Food Rocket has ultra-local grocery stores in neighborhoods across the city. These stores stock pantry staples, fresh produce, ready-to-eat meals and household necessities.
Here's a Few Things to Love About Food Rocket
We know that there are other speedy grocery delivery services in the area, and so does Food Rocket. Since "super fast food delivery" isn't really a brand-new concept, Food Rocket needed more selling points to be successful.
Spoiler alert: They delivered. (Pun intended!)
The thing that sets Food Rocket apart for us is their ability to deliver what you need faster than most of us can manage to get out the door. No matter how big or small your order is, you can count on them to bring it to your door in 15 minutes or less.
Having quick and easy access to an affordable, well-stocked grocery store is a massive bonus for neighborhoods that previously only had pricy convenience stores or fast-food chains close by. Now, if you need a few ingredients for that healthy dinner idea you found on Pinterest, you can swing by your local Food Rocket store to grab the necessities!
Shop Smarter, Not Harder
Food Rocket gives us solutions to problems we didn't even realize we had. We love grabbing every possible chance to shop locally and reduce food waste. Now, Food Rocket combines both of those things with the added bonus of ultra-fast grocery delivery. Who doesn't love instant gratification?
According to CEO Vitaly Alexandrov, the best is yet to come. He says that the company plans to add even more features like ghost kitchens to its local network. This means that Food Rocket customers will soon have access to healthy, ready-to-eat meals that can be ordered as standalone products or in addition to grocery staples.
So, if you're looking for a better, faster and more convenient way to get your groceries, put down the shoes and pick up your phone instead.
