Walmart plans to roll out next-day delivery service to 75% of the U.S. population by year-end.
Walmart is rolling out next-day delivery on its most popular items, increasing the stakes in the retail shipping wars.
Next-day delivery service will be available in Phoenix, Arizona and Las Vegas on Tuesday. In coming days, it will expand to southern California. The discounter plans to roll out the service to 75% of the U.S. population by year-end. It will also be adding hundreds of thousands more products as the program expands.
The move will only increase pressure on other rivals that are already investing in millions of dollars to shorten the delivery window. Two years ago, Walmart began offering free two-day shipping on millions of items on its website for orders of at least $35. Target also offers free two-day shipping for those who spend at least $35 or use its RedCard loyalty card. Walmart has also been expanding same-day grocery delivery service fulfilled from its stores for a fee of about $10.
