Grocery Delivery Service Jupiter Launches Social Shopping Platform

Jupiter, a grocery delivery company has announced community-based shopping, one of the first grocery social shopping experiences in the industry. Jupiter’s platform now features popular food influencers and recipe creators, social sharing and more than 2,000 recipes, allowing users to quickly browse recipes, plan meals, and, with one click, add recipe ingredients to their shopping carts, making grocery shopping faster and easier than ever before.

While Jupiter’s grocery delivery service currently serves residents in the San Francisco Bay Area, Jupiter’s social shopping experience is available to anyone who loves finding new recipes, cooking and sharing photos of what they cook, and who is interested in being involved in a food community.

“After a year of living through the Covid-19 pandemic it’s become clear that cooking and eating at home has evolved from being a necessity to something that friends and families have bonded over on social media,” said Chad Munroe, co-founder and CEO of Jupiter. “We believe that this new food community – which involves sharing sourdough bread triumphs and failures, to discovering recipes that are fun, easy and appeal to family members of all ages – can help people feed their families more quickly and easily when it’s seamlessly combined with the online grocery shopping experience.”

The launch of Jupiter’s social shopping platform is a broad expansion from the recipe feature Jupiter launched last year, which allowed users access and add recipes they could shop and instantly add to their baskets, giving them more options to make homemade meals instead of having to rely on expensive meal kits and premade dishes.
