For 20 years now, FreshDirect has been a trailblazer in the online grocery shopping industry.
Celebrating “20 Years of Fresh” means a whole lot of happy customers and over 57,000,000 orders delivered since 2002! Here’s a closer look at the numbers…
While their visual storytelling, content marketing and local advertising has naturally changed throughout the years, FreshDirect’s commitment to delivering the best in-season picks, local goods, and chef-prepared meals to select states in the Northeast US never wavered.
