Sobeys Announces Mobile App For Android

sobeysSobeys Inc. has unveiled a new way for busy Canadians to plan their next meal and organize their weekly shopping requirements with the launch of its new free mobile application. The app, with hundreds of easy to prepare recipes, new ingredients to discover and instant access to the weekly flyer, was first made available for iOS earlier this year, and now it’s available for Android as well, making it easy for Canadians to shop for fresh, tasty and seasonal food while saving time and money.

“Shopping for better food on the go has never been easier,” said Doug Brummer, Senior Vice President of Marketing, Sobeys Inc. “We know Canadians want to eat better, feel better and do better, and our new mobile app gives Canadians yet another way to discover and shop for affordable better food solutions–anytime, anywhere.”

At the heart of the app is a smart shopping list feature which helps customers get organized by instantly adding recipe ingredients or products featured in Sobeys’ weekly flyer to their shopping lists. Customers simply log in, check off items as they shop, and consult the item counter to ensure they don’t forget anything.
