Shipt provides members in Austin with home delivery from H-E-B and the company is now looking to grow its local workforce by 300 additional shoppers to meet increased demand.

Shipt Shoppers are able to set their own schedule through a custom app which allows them to select orders that work with their daily routine. Shipt offers flexibility to shoppers, who can either work as much or as little as their schedule permits.

"Our successful partnership with H-E-B has shown us that Austin residents see the value in having access to a nontraditional grocery shopping experience," said Bill Smith, founder and CEO of Shipt. "Since our launch in the summer of 2016, there has been a continually increasing demand for Shipt Shoppers. Expanding our workforce by hiring 300 additional Shoppers is our next step in ensuring the best customer experience possible for our members."
