Walmart will expand its GoLocal delivery service to compete for the same-day delivery market!

It is learned that according to foreign media reports, Walmart is expanding its visibility through the GoLocal delivery service to provide delivery services for categories other than food.

It is reported that since the launch of this new delivery service in August 2021, Walmart has become a strong competitor to platforms such as DoorDash and Instacart (both of which provide same-day delivery services), and has quickly occupied an important position in the same-day delivery market.

According to reports, the next goal of Walmart's GoLocal delivery service is to complete more orders on more routes, that is, to expand the delivery range and increase the delivery volume. Harsit Patel, general manager of Walmart GoLocal, said that the scope of GoLocal's delivery service will spread "basically around Walmart locations."

It is reported that Walmart currently has more than 5,300 physical stores in the United States, including Sam's Club stores, many of which are located in rural and suburban areas. According to industry insiders, this will lay the foundation for the expansion of GoLocal's delivery service and enable it to reach more potential customers.

It is understood that Walmart GoLocal delivery service mainly delivers orders from other retailers, focusing on orders on shopping websites and applications. Walmart GoLocal does not have a direct-to-consumer platform.

According to a report by Coresight Research, the value of the U.S. fast-commerce market in 2021 is between $20 billion and $25 billion, which is a significant increase and will further drive the growth of the fast delivery market. Walmart GoLocal, DoorDash and Instacart will benefit greatly from it.
