While members of the Arkansas-based warehouse retailer<\/a> continue to prioritize quality and value, Frazier said they increasingly want fresh food delivered to their homes, available for curbside pickup or otherwise accessible “on their own terms.”<\/p>\n “What has changed is convenience is becoming increasingly important to the value equation,” Frazier said.\u00a0<\/p>\n The shift comes as grocers and warehouse retailers invest in delivery, curbside pickup and digital shopping options to meet consumers’<\/a> growing demand for convenience.<\/p>\n CHICK-FIL-A RULES OUT AI DRIVE-THRU ORDERING AS FAST-FOOD RIVALS EMBRACE TECHNOLOGY<\/a><\/p>\n Grocery shoppers still want “high-quality” fresh food at a “great value,” but convenience is becoming an increasingly important part of that equation, Sam’s Club Chief Merchandising Officer Myron Frazier told FOX Business. (FOX Business)<\/p>\n Roughly 70% of consumers prefer home delivery for online grocery orders, with most expecting groceries to arrive the same day or within a few hours, according to McKinsey & Company’s “The State of Grocery North America 2026” report<\/a>.<\/p>\n To meet those changing shopping habits, Sam’s Club is expanding its lineup of ready-to-cook meals while giving members more ways to shop for fresh food.<\/p>\n “We’re really leaning in on this idea of offering high-quality, fresh foods in a way that’s convenient from the club to your home, and then from the stove or from the oven to the table,” Frazier said.<\/p>\n Frazier pointed to products including Sam’s Club’s fresh panko chicken breast, which shoppers can use to quickly build a meal, and its ready-to-cook “Marry Me Chicken,” which can feed a family of four in about 12 minutes.<\/p>\n POPULAR COOKIE CHAIN ABRUPTLY CLOSES ALL LOCATIONS AFTER YEARS OF RAPID EXPANSION<\/a><\/p>\n Sam’s Club is expanding its lineup of ready-to-cook meals while giving members more ways to shop for fresh food.
