Key Takeaways
Uber partners with Ace Hardware to add 3,700 stores to Uber Eats across all 50 states.
The move expands Uber's push into retail categories like home improvement, electronics, and beauty.
Uber Eats added 50,000 U.S. retail locations and 1,000 global retailers in 2025.
In line with its efforts to expand the delivery business, Uber Technologies (UBER - Free Report) announced that it has entered into a collaboration with Ace Hardware, aimed at bringing more than 3,700 Ace Hardware locations across all 50 states to the Uber Eats platform.
The collaboration of Uber’s delivery technology with Ace’s widespread network footprint is likely to help consumers get their home improvement essentials delivered at their doorstep through few clicks on the Uber Eats app.
The deal reflects Uber Eats’ constant focus on expanding beyond food delivery into everyday retail categories, which include home improvement, beauty, electronics, and more. We would like to remind investors that in 2025, Uber Eats witnessed more than 1,000 new retailers globally and more than 50,000 retail locations across the United States getting added to its platform.
Last year, Uber inked a deal with retailer Best Buy (BBY - Free Report) for on-demand delivery. The deal brought consumer electronics from more than 800 stores to the Uber Eats platform. Uber Eats is the online food ordering and delivery platform of the company. Following the tie-up, Best Buy customers throughout the United States are eligible to order a wide range of electronics, appliances and tech essentials on Uber Eats for delivery to their doorsteps.
The Best Buy deal apart, Uber’s agreements with discount retailers Dollar General (DG - Free Report) and Dollar Tree (DLTR - Free Report) were also on the same customer-friendly lines. The tie-up with Dollar General ensured that its more than 14,000 locations arrived on the Uber Eats platform. Following the association with Dollar General, customers are using the Uber Eats app to order food, beverages and other essentials.
The deal with Dollar Tree has also enhanced UBER’s retail delivery capabilities by adding nearly 9,000 stores to the Uber Eats platform. The partnership with Dollar Tree ensures that customers across states can easily access affordable items of everyday use, ranging from party supplies to cosmetics and home essentials for on-demand delivery.
