A click and collect / in person delivery has benefits too though:
* It’s cheaper for Walmart as it can ride on the back of an existing trunk from a logistics perspective.
* Dependent on how confident you are on stock, Walmart could offer “instant” click and collect on any range in stock in store. This does depend on inventory policies and is more complicated than it initially seems though.
* It gets someone in your store which has an umbrella effect as they are likely to purchase something else.
Most are benefits for Walmart, but the lower delivery cost can be passed on to customers and instant pickup is great for customers when it happens. Furthermore, click and collect is great for people in flats or where leaving a parcel isn’t practical.
