TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA - DoorDash Canada and Walmart Canada announced a nationwide collaboration, providing more Canadians across the country with on-demand access to grocery and general merchandise essentials. This comes as Canadians continue to seek affordable and convenient shopping options, which they can now find at Walmart through DoorDash’s easy-to-use app and website.
“We're thrilled to collaborate with DoorDash to offer Canadians another fast and convenient way to access our broad assortment, right at their fingertips,” said Ignacio Baladron, Vice President, Omni Channel and Online Grocery at Walmart Canada. “DoorDash opens our doors to Canadians who are strapped for time, in need of last-minute items or who prefer to shop from the comfort of their home—especially as we head into the holiday season. We’re proud to continue our journey to become the number one omnichannel retailer as we live out our mission of helping Canadians save money so they can live better.”
Customers shopping on DoorDash can now browse tens of thousands of unique items from Walmart—including beloved private label brands like Great Value, Equate, and Mainstays. Once an order is placed from Walmart on DoorDash’s app or website, a nearby Dasher will shop for each item on a customer’s list, a press release stated. Forget something? Customers can continue adding items to their cart until a Dasher arrives at the store to begin shopping.
Canadians across the country can now shop grocery and general merchandise from over 300 Walmart Supercentres in Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, and Saskatchewan—enjoying delivery right to their doors. Roughly four in five customers who shopped on DoorDash in Canada in the last 60 days will now have access to convenient and reliable on-demand delivery from Walmart.
“Families look to DoorDash to support their weekly routines, and through our collaboration with Walmart, we’re proud to connect them with access to fresh produce, pantry staples, and home goods on demand,” said Shilpa Arora, General Manager of DoorDash Canada. “Customers continue to enjoy the convenience of delivery for a variety of occasions, whether that’s searching for an easy weeknight meal or ordering gifts for the holidays.”
