Soap.com Launches Grocery Category Featuring Massive Selection

Site Makes Life Easier for Consumers by Stocking Everything From Mass to Specialty Non-Perishable Food Items, All With Free, 1-2 Day Shipping


JERSEY CITY, NJ--(Marketwire - Oct 24, 2011) - Soap.com, dedicated to making life easier as the one-stop-shop for everyday essentials, today announced the launch of its Grocery category, which will carry more than 10,000 non-perishable food items. Items in Soap.com's Grocery category include coffee and tea, snacks, cereal, pasta, baking ingredients and canned items, and as usual, all orders arrive in 1-2 days, with free shipping for orders over $39.

Soap.com's food selection is similar to that of a non-perishable selection of a large supermarket, but with the added convenience of home delivery and large selection of both mass and specialty brands. Brands on the site include Cheerios, Kettle Chips, Senseo, and Celestial Seasonings Tea, as well as hard-to-find items from The Gluten-Free Pantry, Eden Foods Organic and Energ-G Foods. As with all orders from Soap.com, boxes are packed using a proprietary software system that insures all items arrive intact, in an optimally packaged box.

"Our philosophy is to make our customers' lives easier," said Quidsi CEO Marc Lore. "We already carry a vast selection of health, beauty, and household essentials. Our customers have been asking about grocery since we launched in 2010. It was a seamless transition to offer a large selection of beverages, snacks and meal prep items for the whole family on Soap.com. Our goal is to continue to expand our product selection, and ultimately, help eliminate errands so our shoppers can spend more time doing the things they enjoy."

Soap.com launched to the public in July 2010 and has since doubled its product selection. Shoppers continue to enjoy the ease and convenience of online ordering for everyday essentials delivered to their doorstep in 1-2 days nationwide.
