With Walmart's InHome service, workers sporting wearable cameras will arrive in company-owned cars and unpack the food in customers’ kitchens.
Walmart Inc. already sells more food than anyone else. Now, it wants to put those groceries right into your fridge.
The service, dubbed Walmart InHome, will be led by Bart Stein, who joined the retailer last year and had been working inside the company’s Store No. 8 incubator on a project code-named Franklin. The effort follows a small pilot program Walmart conducted two years ago in California with smart-home provider August Home, which used workers from startup Deliv to handle the in-home deliveries.
Customers can also leave unwanted items that they want to return to Walmart for the driver, who will bring them back to the store.
