Скачать или смотреть Micro POScast #03 - Walmart partners with Home Valet to start smart boxes delivery

Walmart is shaking the home delivery scene with a very interesting partnership with Home Valet.

Home Valet is US start-up that offers smart boxes for grocery home delivery.

These smart boxes sit outside your home and can be opened remotely by the delivery team. Inside you find three compartments to store items depending on their cooling needs. That would be frozen, refrigerated or pantry.

The venture clearly aims at intensifying the home delivery channel and offers interesting alternatives for customers that want to shop online but cannot take deliveries.

Walmart has already been very active on this scene trying to find ways to develop the eCommerce channel. This collaboration with Home Valet puts part of the responsibility on the customer's end and we know how important that is in eCommerce grocery retail.

Successful business models in the eCommerce grocery retail include "cost-sharing" between retailers and consumers. Take for instance the drive format. It's successful because both parties make an effort. Retailers do the picking and consumers do the delivery. Simple yet effective.

Thanks for listening!
