Walmart US last-mile senior vice-president Tom Ward said: “We’re excited to work with Chico’s FAS, Walmart GoLocal’s first fashion client, to bring added convenience to the lives of families in communities of all sizes across the country.
“Whether they’re shopping for something new for their closets or for their weekly grocery haul, we know customers everywhere are starved for time and hungry for convenience.
“The beauty of Walmart GoLocal is our ability to customise the service to businesses of all sizes and offerings and give shoppers time back, no matter what they’re looking for.”
In October, US-based home improvement retailer The Home Depot partnered with Walmart to improve its same-day and next-day delivery capabilities.
The companies initially delivered tools, fasteners, paint and other supplies that can fit easily in cars.
They plan to expand the service into other markets across the US by the end of the year.
