Tops Markets LLC has further expanded its Instacart services to include pickup at seven of the grocer’s upstate New York stores. This added offering will enable shoppers to have their weekly groceries available for pickup at their local Tops store, in addition to a home delivery option.
Already at 139 Tops locations throughout the grocery store chain’s market area, pickup is now an option at the following seven New York Tops locations:
1000 Portage Road, Niagara Falls
3500 Main Street, Amherst
345 Amherst Street, Buffalo
1460 South Park Avenue, Buffalo
6363 Transit Road, Depew

“We’re excited to bring even more convenience to the shoppers across our footprint,” noted Jocelyn O’Steen, e-commerce specialist for Northeast Shared Services, supporting Tops’ main operating company, Northeast Grocery Inc. “This expansion marks our 15th expansion since Tops launched Instacart services in 2017, allowing us to further expand our reach.”
Tops rolled out same-day home delivery service across the chain’s footprint in Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse, N.Y., as well as Erie, Pa., in November 2017. In 2018 alone, Tops added another 44 stores to the fold. Currently, Tops customers throughout the grocer’s geographic footprint have access to same-day home delivery via Instacart, with thousands of items able to be delivered to their doors in as short a time as one hour. Customers will not only find most Tops in-store products and deals online, but can also earn gas points to redeem when they visit the retailer’s fuel stations.
