Kroger opens second Richmond-area ClickList at Midlothian store

The second Richmond-area ClickList location will open on Thursday at the Kroger store at 3001 Polo Parkway in Midlothian.

The online-ordering service began in the Richmond market in March at the Chester Kroger Marketplace. Starting Thursday, Midlothian shoppers can visit www.kroger.com/onlineshopping, create an account and then select the ClickList location.

In addition, Kroger plans to open a third ClickList location in mid-June at its Short Pump store at 11895 West Broad St.  The grocery chain plans a total of 11 ClickList locations throughout the Richmond area to open this year. Those locations are:

·       Kroger Marketplace – 10800 Iron Bridge Road, Chester, 23831 (Opened March 2016)

At each opening, Kroger said it would waive the online shopping fee of $4.95 for a customer’s first three orders. Each ClickList location offers more than 40,000 items, including fresh meat and produce.

To use the  service, customers log in to their accounts, create a shopping list, select a pick-up time and place an order. Once an order is placed, a Kroger store employee shops the store to fulfill the order and stores it in temperature-appropriate zones until the customer arrives.

When the customer arrives to the designated pick-up area, a store employee loads the order into the customer’s car. Payment is made at time of pick-up. Pharmacy prescriptions are not included in the program.
