The first partnership of its kind in the independent channel, Ace Hardware and DoorDash, a leading local commerce platform, are partnering to offer on-demand delivery of home improvement essentials from over 4,000 Ace locations across the U.S.
“Ace is always looking for new ways to serve our customers better and faster, and now with DoorDash, we’re creating more opportunities to take convenience to a new level,” says Bill Kiss, head of digital at Ace Hardware. “Together, we’re combining Ace’s extensive assortment of top-quality products with fast and reliable on-demand delivery that DoorDash is known for. Now our customers can get what they need quickly from their local Ace store, without leaving home or stopping in the middle of a project.”
Consumers can shop thousands of hardware, paint, tools and garden products directly via the Ace storefront on the DoorDash app or website. Orders are fulfilled in real-time by Dashers, who pick up and deliver items with care from neighborhood Ace stores—helping customers complete projects on their schedule. To celebrate the launch, DoorDash is offering special savings on customers’ first delivery orders.
“We’re thrilled to be Ace’s exclusive delivery partner, giving consumers quick access to essential home improvement supplies from thousands of independently owned stores nationwide,” says Mike Goldblatt, VP of grocery & retail partnerships at DoorDash. “This partnership reflects our ongoing mission to empower local economies by supporting small businesses and helping Ace build on their ongoing commitments in digital innovation and fulfillment. Whether you need last-minute charcoal for a backyard barbecue or the perfect paint color, Ace on DoorDash ensures you’re never held up.”
Earlier this year, the Home Depot announced its partnership with DoorDash and Uber Eats, while Lowe’s has been a partner of DoorDash since April 2024.
