Kroger Expands Click-and-Collect in Central Ohio

The Cincinnati-based Kroger Co. has doubled its number of Central Ohio locations offering click-and-collect service, now reaching 16 in the region, Columbus Business First reported.

Of the new locations with Kroger ClickList, two are located in Columbus, while one each is in Upper Arlington, Marysville, Delaware, Newark, Canal Winchester and Worthington, the new site stated. The service originally entered Central Ohio with two stores in Columbus last June, then another six a few months later.

Through ClickList, shoppers may choose from 40,000-plus products, including fresh meat and produce. Orders are $4.95 each, regardless of size, with no charge for the first three orders.

Click-and-collect is growing in popularity in Central Ohio, the site reported: Currently, Giant Eagle operates click-and-collect service in 12 stores and Walmart in four supercenters, while Amazon.com brought Prime Now delivery to Columbus last May, the news site said.
