Feature Spotlight: Instacart App & Storefront Pro Integrations

As customer expectations continue to evolve and demand for seamless shopping experiences - both online and offline - grow, grocery prepared foods businesses need to stay ahead of the curve to ensure they remain competitive for customer dollars. One way of achieving this is to ensure your prepared food offering is shoppable online through the various platforms and websites where potential customers are looking. Instacart offers multiple e-commerce storefronts for grocers to sell their items, including the Instacart App and Storefront Pro. So what if your grocery business offers made-to-order items, prepared meals and catering? FoodStorm now integrates with the Instacart App and Storefront Pro so you can enjoy the exposure of these e-commerce solutions with the power of FoodStorm for foodservice order management. 

What are the Instacart App & Storefront Pro Integrations?

Connecting the Instacart App and Storefront Pro to FoodStorm allows retailers to receive orders from their Instacart App account and Storefront Pro e-commerce website into FoodStorm for seamless foodservice management. This connection allows foodservice items, such as made-to-order sandwiches, custom cakes, catering items and more to be sold on the Instacart App and Storefront Pro, while providing the power of FoodStorm for the order management process.

How can the Instacart App & Storefront Pro Integrations help my grocery perimeter business?

By having your prepared food items available on multiple platforms, you have an opportunity to receive more orders. The Instacart App is a widely used marketplace for grocery items, household goods and meal orders. This functionality allows you to increase the exposure of your prepared food items through your Instacart App listing while having these orders funnel through to your FoodStorm system for seamless in-store order production and management. Similarly, Storefront Pro is Instacart's whitelabel e-commerce solution for grocers, providing a solution for those who want a fuller grocery e-commerce website. Some examples of how the Instacart App & Storefront Pro Integrations can help your grocery catering business are:
