Top 100 retailer Big Lots is adding to its arsenal of fulfillment options through a new partnership with same-day shopping and delivery company Shipt.
Shipt, the same-day shopping and delivery subsidiary of Target announced a partnership with home goods retailer Big Lots. Target will use Shipt to support same-day delivery from 1,000 Big Lots stores, adding to Shipt’s catalog of over 160 retail partners.
Big Lots will leverage Shipt for deliveries of small- and midsize home goods, grocery and home decor orders. That includes items such as toys, paper products and small furnishings like chairs.
