Wal-Mart’s (NYSE:WMT) latest move to venture into customers’ home could play a big role in bringing new growth opportunities to the world’s largest retailer. It launched an online grocery delivery service ”Walmart To Go” that allows customers to purchase food, health-and-beauty products, medicine and other basic household goods online and have them delivered to their doorsteps.

Will home delivery take hold ?

Wal-Mart is presently testing the home grocery delivery service in San Jose, California. We believe with increasing modernization and Internet penetration, it is very likely that customers’ tendency would tilt towards being more aware about prices and at the same time shifting preference towards spending less time on running errands. There is a large number of customers who dislike spending weekends on grocery shopping.
The home delivery alternative could find a pent up demand for such customers. According to survey results from Booz & Co. and the Grocery Manufacturers Association, about 62% of shoppers research online deals before heading out to shop at least 50% of the time. [1]

We believe home delivery service has prospects of being successful on a larger scale by engaging customers who love being served at home.
