COVID-19: Walmart to Debut Two-Hour Delivery

Walmart (Bentonville, Ark.)  has accelerated the rollout of its Express Delivery service, which is designed to deliver items from the store in less than two hours, according to a press release.
The service has been tested in about 100 stores since last month and will be available at about 2000 stores in the next two weeks. Shoppers can select from more than 160,000 eligible items in grocery, everyday essentials, toys and electronics.

“We know our customers’ lives have changed during this pandemic, and so has the way they shop,” said Janey Whiteside, chief customer officer, Walmart. “We also know when we come out of this, customers will be busier than ever, and sometimes that will call for needing supplies in a hurry.
