What happened?
Walmart announced on September 3, 2026, that it was expanding its restaurant delivery business and partnering with doughnut and coffee brand Dunkin’. According to information released by Walmart, consumers will be able to purchase Dunkin’ food and beverages through the delivery service and have them delivered to their homes. The partnership extends Walmart’s delivery services from retail products into restaurant delivery beyond stores. Greg Cathey, Walmart’s senior vice president of transformation and U.S. eCommerce fulfillment, said the company aims to provide greater fulfillment value for consumers by expanding its partner brands and delivery coverage. The business is part of Walmart’s efforts in on-demand delivery and restaurant delivery services.
What does this mean for cross-border sellers?
Walmart’s continued expansion of on-demand delivery and home services means platform competition will depend not only on price, but also on fulfillment speed and local supply density. Sellers that use standard cross-border delivery times for every order may lose competitiveness in on-demand shopping scenarios.
