Instacart’s FoodStorm expansion accelerates as grocers upgrade fresh counters

FoodStorm more than doubles its reach to 2,800 stores, including Coborn’s Inc., Giant Eagle, Lucky Supermarkets, and Save Mart, that are now live with the platform

SAN FRANCISCO — Instacart’s FoodStorm platform is gaining serious momentum in 2025, more than doubling its presence to over 2,800 stores across North America as grocers respond to surging demand for freshly prepared food options.

Retailers including Coborn’s Inc., Giant Eagle, Lucky Supermarkets, and Save Mart are now live with FoodStorm, Instacart’s order management system (OMS) purpose-built to streamline perimeter counter and foodservice operations.

The rapid expansion comes amid a shift in consumer preferences toward convenient, made-to-order meals available at grocery stores. From catering services to hot bar offerings, FoodStorm helps grocers modernize the entire fresh food ordering process, boosting efficiency for store teams and enhancing the customer experience.

New Retailers Now Live on FoodStorm

  • Giant Eagle – Operating on FoodStorm across both Giant Eagle and Market District locations
  • Lucky Supermarkets – Fully live across all stores in the San Francisco Bay Area
  • Save Mart – Now active throughout all Central Valley locations in California

FoodStorm provides comprehensive digital management for perimeter counter operations, encompassing online ordering, kitchen workflow coordination, and seamless pickup. The result is a more scalable, consistent fresh food program for grocers—one that drives incremental sales and delivers the elevated convenience customers expect.

Instacart says it plans to continue expanding FoodStorm throughout the remainder of the year, adding more retailers and capabilities as grocers embrace fresh food as a growth engine.
