WASHINGTON: Walmart Inc is stepping up its battle with Amazon.com Inc by offering one-day delivery without a shipping fee, weeks after Amazon announced a similar offer: a move that will intensify the race to deliver orders to shoppers faster.
The service will be rolled out gradually, with a plan to reach approximately 75per cent of the U.S. population this year, which includes 40 of the top 50 U.S. metro areas, Lore said. "We have been working on this since I have gotten here...we have been building out the infrastructure for the last few years to support this," said Lore, who joined the retailer in 2016 when it acquired his company, Jet.com.
