BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Nov. 23, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Shipt today announced that it's adding 50,000 more shoppers to its national network this holiday season after seeing increased, early demand across its business. This is in addition to the 100,000 shoppers Shipt announced it would be onboarding nationwide in October.

Shipt is looking for shoppers across the country and is focusing on adding thousands of shoppers in Detroit, Grand Rapids, Mich., Minneapolis/St. Paul, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. People who become shoppers over the next few days are eligible for the company's holiday cash bonus during November 25-30, as well as any local incentives.

"Shipt Shoppers are serving customers with care and making their lives easier during an unprecedented holiday season," said Shipt CEO Kelly Caruso. "We're excited to add even more shoppers to the community and reward them for their work in helping American families prepare for holiday meals, delight loved ones with gifts and everything in between."

While Shipt is on track to add the 100,000 additional shoppers it announced back in October, adding another 50,000 shoppers to its platform will further help deliver high customer service and support continued expansion into new markets and retailers throughout the busy holiday season. Over the past six months, Shipt has experienced fast-paced growth, doubling its shopper base, expanding its retailer footprint and growing its membership and customer base.
