Walmart’s Jet.com To Offer Same-Day Grocery Delivery In New York

Walmart Inc.’s Jet.com unit will soon be making same-day grocery deliveries in New York City, upping the fight for customers in a highly competitive market.

Jet will open a fulfillment center in the Bronx this fall to bring same-day and next-day delivery to the city, the company said in an emailed statement. The center will stock Jet inventory, which includes groceries and everyday essentials, as well as other select merchandise.

Rival Target Corp. already offers same-day delivery for in-store purchases to parts of New York City for a fee, and Amazon.com Inc. has same-day food delivery in the city through PrimeNow.
