In one of the first signs of the broad effects of the passage of Proposition 22 in California, Albertsons Cos. confirmed Monday that it’s moving away from doing its own grocery delivery in Southern California and toward using third-party delivery services.

Albertsons ACI, -0.97%, whose subsidiaries include grocery stores Vons, Pavilions and Safeway, decided on the shift in early December, according to a spokesman.

“Albertsons Companies made the strategic decision to discontinue using our own home delivery fleet of trucks in select locations, including Southern California, beginning February 27, 2021,” said spokesman Andrew Whelan in an emailed statement. “We will transition that portion of our eCommerce operations to third-party logistics providers who specialize in that service.”
