As a key component in diversifying its on-demand delivery solutions, PlantX Life (CSE: VEGA) (Frankfurt: WNT1) (OTCQB: PLTXF), a one-stop-shop for all things plant-based, recently announced the launch of same-day delivery for its grocery products across Ottawa and Toronto, Ontario. The expansion reflects the PlantX commitment to enhancing its e-commerce capabilities by leveraging PlantX’s retail stores in the Hudson’s Bay in Yorkdale Mall (Toronto) and CF Rideau Centre (Ottawa) (https://ibn.fm/YWirH).
“Expanding same-day delivery service to Ontario will help us leverage the combined impact of our e-commerce acumen and our in-store expertise,” PlantX CEO Lorne Rapkin said. “This will ensure that we continue to capitalize on the opportunities offered by the growing retail landscape.”
Sean Dollinger, founder of PlantX, added that one of the company’s core goals is to make a plant-based lifestyle accessible to all, which is why it is expanding on its commitment of making plant-based shopping easier for Canadian customers. “By offering consumers trusted same-day delivery options, we build on our legacy of excellent customer service and our goal of becoming the one-stop-shop for everything plant-based in Canada and globally,” Dollinger explained.
Third-party delivery apps will facilitate the same-day distribution of plant-based products. In addition to the same-day delivery options, the company plans to enhance the e-commerce impact of its retail stores across Ontario while utilizing its brick-and-mortar retail locations as e-commerce fulfillment centers and marketing hubs to boost shopper traffic on the digital platform.
The high demand for alternative, plant-based groceries is expected to create substantial growth in the global plant-based alternatives market, which is anticipated to grow to $162 billion over the next decade from a value of $29.4 billion in 2020 (https://ibn.fm/jdE8S). PlantX is positioned to disrupt the global plant-based alternatives market in physical store locations and online platforms.
PlantX is also dedicated to providing customers and visitors to their platform with educational materials, recipes and blog articles. The company offers weekly Vodcasts (“XVodcast”), discussing news and topics important to the plant-based community as well as a wide range of recipes on its website, offering the best plant-based and vegan meal alternatives.
The current PlantX offering consists of over 5,000 plant-based products across the platform. Available plant-based products and resources include:
- XGroceries
- XBeverages

- XBeauty
- XRecipes
- XGifts
