About Instacart Stock
Instacart is a grocery delivery startup that offers same‐day delivery. Customers use the company's website or app to fill their virtual shopping cart with items from local stores. Instacart then connects the customers with shoppers who pick up the items and deliver them straight to their door. In November 2018, Instacart announced a new pickup feature, which was rolled out throughout 2019. The new feature allows customers to pick their orders up from select grocery stores. Instacart announced the expansion of the pickup service, which began in 2020.
Instacart was founded in 2012 by Apoorva Mehta and is based in San Francisco. Notable investors include Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, Andreessen Horowitz, Sequoia Capital, Y Combinator, Khosla Ventures, Canaan Partners, and other participants.
