    Online grocer FreshDirect has added four new communities in the Greenwich CT area to its roster and doubled its presence in Westchester County NY to 21 communities. Already a mainstay in New York City’s five boroughs and several counties in New Jersey, the company’s entry into Connecticut expands its successful fresh food and grocery home delivery service to include the tri-state region.

    For the first time, FreshDirect will be available to residents in Greenwich, Old Greenwich, Cos Cob, and Riverside in Connecticut. The service will also reach 21 communities in Westchester including Ardsley, Bronxville, Dobbs Ferry, Eastchester, Harrison, Hartsdale, Hastings-on-Hudson, Irvington, Larchmont, Mamaroneck, Mount Vernon, New Rochelle, Pelham, Port Chester, Purchase, Rye, Scarsdale, Tuckahoe, West Harrison, White Plains, and Yonkers.

    From its kitchen and facility in Long Island City NY, FreshDirect offers a selection of fresh, quality produce, meats, fish, and dairy items, sourced direct from the farms and fisheries and delivered straight to the customer’s door. Orders are prepared just hours before delivery.

    FreshDirect offers more than 600 choices of ready-to-heat and serve whole meals or side dishes. All freshly prepared meals are certified by FreshDirect’s on-staff nutritionist.

    The company recently launched the full-service grocery shopping iPhone App, which is free to all FreshDirect customers. The iPhone app is an on-the-go grocery store that delivers a full product selection and smart features.
