Walmart Canada omnichannel operation vice-president Ignacio Baladron said: “Not only will our customers save money when shopping with Walmart Canada, they can now spend less time shopping in-store with groceries and more delivered right to their doors from our stores. We’re unlocking access to unlimited, free next-day delivery on items including groceries, electronics and toys at a low price they can afford.
“We’re excited to launch today and already have ambitious plans to evolve the programme and unlock new features. Delivery Pass is just getting started.”
In Canada, Walmart operates a network of more than 400 stores and its online store, Walmart.ca, hosts more than 1.5 million customers daily.
In May this year, the retailer announced changes in senior executive leadership for its Canadian business to support strategic initiatives.
