BRONX, N.Y.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–FreshDirect BB #:164151, the online grocery shopping pioneer and one of the leading grocery delivery services in the U.S., is celebrating 20 years of innovation, excellence, and convenience. Since its founding in 2002, the Bronx-based online grocer has remained a signature household staple for two decades and has established true connections with its loyal customers.
FreshDirect delivers the highest quality, best tasting food directly to the doors of online grocery shoppers throughout the Northeast and distinguishes itself through direct and exclusive relationships with local farmers and suppliers.
To commemorate this extraordinary milestone, FreshDirect will be acknowledging the communities and the customers it serves, as well as the dedicated FreshDirect employees, with various celebratory events and promotions leading up to July 11, the day the company opened for business.
“While we are proud to have played an integral role in the defining moments of the online grocery industry over the last 20 years, we are exceptionally proud of bringing families together to create memorable moments over great food,” said Dave Bass, Managing Director, FreshDirect. “We are extremely grateful to our loyal customers, dedicated employees, and supportive community members for their contributions to FreshDirect’s evolution and growth, and we look forward to the next 20 years as we continue to deliver extraordinary quality, value and ease to New York City and beyond.”

In addition, the company will be offering “Anniversary Savings” promotions all summer long.
To celebrate and recognize the efforts of its dedicated workforce, FreshDirect will be hosting a 20th Anniversary celebration for all employees and their families. In addition, there will be a “20 Days of Giveaways” promotion for employees, offering a wide variety of prizes. Long-term employees will be highlighted in a social media “Employee Spotlight” campaign to acknowledge their commitment and dedication to the FreshDirect organization.
