Hey there, we’re Foxtrot.

And we’re the digitally-native evolution of the traditional corner store. Sounds fancy, no? Basically, we’re here to serve you a curated collection of daily essentials both in store and online. Since our launch in 2013, we’ve been on a mission to bring the best of the neighborhoods we’re in right to your door through a first-of-its-kind omni-channel experience. So whether it’s taking a coffee break in one of our beautifully designed shops or getting happy hour delivered in under an hour through our app, our mission is simple: deliver good stuff.

Backed by investors who believe in our mission like Fifth Wall, Lerer Hippeau, Revolution’s Rise of the Rest, and Collaborative, just to name a few, we’re able to continue to build upon our vision to reimagine convenience—21st century style.
