Membership-based service to launch same-day delivery from Rouses Markets and Target in Lake Charles, Louisiana, and expand in North Shore, Louisiana

Shipt, a leading same-day delivery marketplace, today announced it will begin same-day delivery of an assortment of groceries and household essentials from Target and Rouses Markets in Lake Charles, Louisiana, starting Oct. 25.
