Wal-Mart Stores Inc has begun testing an online grocery delivery service in San Jose, California, according to announcement by a company.
The format of the service is like consumers can visit a website walmart.com and order a grocery and fresh produce, meat& seafood, frozen, bakery, OTC pharmacy, household supply and health & beauty items and have them delivered to home, called " Walmart To Go".
If Walmart continues to serve online grocery, it will have a direct competition with Peapod and Amazon Fresh.
Walmart's U.S. grocery business sales was $140.6 billion last year and groceries account for 54% of total revenue in the year ended January 31, 2011. It excludes Sam's Club stores.
