Target is expanding its next-day delivery service to 35 major U.S. metro areas by the end of October 2023 and plans to add over 20 more locations in 2026, such as Cincinnati and Portland. Most items qualify for free delivery over $35, while others incur a $5.99 fee. This move aims to enhance customer satisfaction and respond to growing demand for faster shipping, as highlighted by executive Gretchen McCarthy. Target is also adjusting its fulfillment strategy to improve in-store experiences and optimize shipping volumes across its locations, leading to quicker delivery times and increased sales.
