Target is planning to test a next-day delivery of essentials ordered online in the Minneapolis area.
Called Target Restock, the service will pilot this summer in the discounter’s hometown. Once the pilot is live, shoppers who have a Target REDcard will be eligible to visit a dedicated online experience to access thousands of household essentials.
Once on the site, shoppers will be able to fill a box with multiple items and have their orders shipped to their homes for a low, flat fee, the company said. The items will be packaged at a nearby store, allowing Target to fulfill orders placed before 1:30 p.m. by the next business day.
Target announced the pilot in a blog on its website.
