Grocery delivery app development for supermarkets and local grocers

Grocery delivery is harder than restaurant delivery: thousands of products, substitutions, delivery windows and items that must stay cold. Our grocery delivery app development team builds apps that handle all of it.

What is grocery delivery app development?

Grocery delivery app development is building the apps that let customers order groceries online and get them delivered. It covers a shopping app with search and a large catalogue, a picking app for staff, delivery window booking, driver routing, substitutions and stock syncing with your store systems.

How do substitutions work?
Customers set substitution preferences when ordering, pickers suggest alternatives in the app, and customers can approve or reject them before delivery.
How much does grocery delivery app development cost?
It depends on your requirements: catalogue size, store integrations, number of apps and delivery model. After a free discovery call you get an itemised proposal.
Can it sync with our POS or inventory system?
