| | E-Commerce News: News: Net Grocer Peapod Expands To Gain from HomeRuns' Loss |
 | | Peapod said the addition of new service areas in the U.S. capital, as well as suburban neighborhoods in Prince George's County, Maryland, marks the second expansion for the online grocer since it arrived in the Washington area late in 2000 via the acquisition of Net grocer Streamline.com's local assets. |
 | | Only one ZIP code served by HomeRuns -- where Peapod analysis showed too few potential customers reside -- is not part of the expansion. |
 | | In addition to Washington, D.C., Peapod operates in Boston, Massachusetts, another area that was served by HomeRuns. |
