Walmart Expands Delivery Service by Partnering with Dunkin'
Walmart has announced a new partnership with Inspire Brands, parent company of Dunkin’, to offer restaurant delivery through its app. This collaboration allows customers to order Dunkin’ food and beverages alongside their regular Walmart purchases using the same checkout process. The initial rollout includes about 150 in-store Dunkin’ locations at Walmarts across the U.S., with plans to expand to most of Dunkin’s approximately 10,000 stores nationwide. This move marks a significant expansion into food delivery for Walmart and positions it as a growing competitor against DoorDash and Uber Eats. The company is leveraging its extensive store network—within 10 miles of about 90% of the U.S. population—and existing last-mile logistics to offer convenience, including flat-rate delivery fees instead of surge pricing. For investors, this partnership highlights Walmart’s strategic focus on speed as a key growth driver and customer acquisition tool. The company aims to enhance its value proposition by integrating restaurant options into everyday shopping trips.
