BOSTON, Dec. 30, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Drizly, the nation's first and largest alcohol e-commerce marketplace, today announced a partnership with Shop Rite & Tobacco Plus, one of Louisiana's leading liquor retailers. The partnership will bring convenient delivery of beer, wine and liquor in under 60 minutes to approximately 1.4 million consumers of legal drinking age, across 14 Louisiana parishes for the first time. Drizly brings adults of legal drinking age the widest selection of beer, wine and spirits, with full price transparency.

Drizly's partnership with Shop Rite & Tobacco Plus will add 19 stores to the platform, including two locations in Lafayette, following the recent passage of legislation allowing alcohol delivery in the parish for the first time. In total, three Shop Rite locations and 16 Tobacco Plus locations will be available on Drizly by mid-January.
