Koninklijke Ahold Delhaize NV (AD.AE) said Thursday that it has appointed Selma Postma as new brand president of its Peapod online delivery service, as the group seeks to accelerate U.S. e-commerce growth.

Ms. Postma's appointment will be effective Jan. 1, 2019, the Netherlands-based owner of grocery chains such as Stop & Shop and Giant Food said. Since 2014, she has been general manager of the company's Albert Heijn food retailer, where she helped to accelerate online sales to more than 20% annually, the grocer said.
