Brand News: New grocery delivery service in Chattanooga

Shipt is an app-based service that will deliver your groceries from Publix.

It will be available to Chattanooga, Collegedale, East Brainerd, Signal Mountain, Lookout Mountain, Middle Valley and Red Bank residents.

“At the core of our business is the mission to simplify the lives of our customers,” said Bill Smith, founder and CEO of Shipt. “After our launch in Nashville earlier this year, we heard from many Chattanooga residents who would greatly benefit from the convenience of on-demand grocery delivery. Our team is hyper-responsive to those requests, and started turning the wheels to bring Shipt to Chattanooga.”

Using the Shipt app, you’ll be able to pick out items to purchase from Publix.
