Popular Asian-American grocer H Mart is adding same-day delivery from Instacart to an additional 59 stores across 12 states, and bringing the service to all 65 of its stores.

The retailer, which says it is the largest Asian supermarket chain in the country, will make the service available at all of its stores in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Illinois, California, Texas, Michigan and Massachusetts. H Mart first partnered with Instacart in March 2016.

“H Mart is excited to partner with Instacart to deliver top-quality Asian groceries to our customers,” said Brian Kwon, president of H Mart Companies Inc. “We hope that delivery of our fresh, delicious and healthy food will bring much joy and many smiles to our customers, families and friends.”

H Mart customers can begin shopping by going online to https://www.instacart.com/store/HMart or opening the Instacart app on their mobile device. From there, customers select their city and store and can begin adding groceries to their Instacart grocery cart. An Instacart personal shopper will pick, pack and deliver the order within the customer’s designated time frame — in as fast as one hour or up to five days in advance.

For orders of $35 or more, the delivery fee is just $3.99. With an Instacart Express membership for $9.99 per month or an annual fee of $99, customers get unlimited, free delivery on all orders over $35. First-time customers of H Mart on Instacart can enter the code HMART10OFF at checkout for $10 off their first order of $35 or more.

“We’re proud to partner with H Mart to bring their loyal customers a new way to have groceries and everyday essentials — like kimchi, fresh seafood and specialty ingredients — delivered from the store to their door in as fast as an hour,” said Andrew Nodes, vice president of retail at Instacart. “H Mart is a household staple for many busy people and families and a great addition to Instacart’s marketplace. We’re excited that our expanded partnership allows H Mart customers to have the groceries they need delivered from the retailer they love.”
