Walmart to offer in-home grocery delivery in three cities later this year

Marc Lore, President and CEO, Walmart eCommerce U.S., said in a statement: “Customers have more choices than ever before when it comes to how they get their groceries. They can shop with us in stores, order online for free pickup, or have groceries delivered to their front doors. It’s why we’re on track to offer Grocery Pickup from 3,100 stores and same-day Grocery Delivery from 1,600 stores by year-end. Walmart InHome Delivery is a new service designed to help customers save time and offer yet another convenient choice for grocery shopping. The service does so by delivering groceries even when customers can’t be home. Here’s how it works: Customers place a grocery order and then select InHome Delivery and a delivery day at checkout – we take it from there! Customers can then go about their days while a Walmart associate takes care of their grocery shopping for them – from food aisle to fridge. At the time of delivery, associates will use smart entry technology and a proprietary, wearable camera to access the customer’s home – allowing customers to control access into their homes and giving them the ability to watch the deliveries remotely. InHome will be kicking off this fall for over 1 million customers across three cities: Kansas City, Missouri; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; and Vero Beach, Florida.”
