I have been placing my grocery orders on-line since the start of the pandemic, I am quite comfortable placing my on-line orders on Thursday mornings and scheduling a pick up on Saturdays.

This is a very relevant topic – I also touched on this in my last post. Retailers are definitely having to make the digital plunge if they haven’t already! Weirdly, I also listed some facts about Walmart in my post. Did you know they topped $10 billion in ecommerce action alone for the first time ever just by the second quarter of this year? I think many people overlook Walmart as being a digital maven but they are really making moves, from being a player in the Tik Tok acquisition, to adjusting their business model and going head to head with Amazon.
There will definitely be a behavioral shift once “a new normal” comes around. It will be interesting to see if contactless buying behaviors stay the same or decrease, and if so, by how much?

Thanks for posting this Janice! You bring up a good point about the pandemic that I haven’t thought about – the lasting effects on brick and mortar shops. It has been almost 8 months now that we’ve been living with COVID-19. The lifestyle changes that seemed so drastic back in March have become habitual. In my opinion, some of the new habits we have are going to last. For example, I can see myself wearing masks in public and being a little extra with the hand sanitizer for the rest of my life. However, as a lover of small businesses/cute mom and pop shops, I really hope that people eventually go back to in-person retail. While some stores have been able to adjust to this new touchless/digital world, some won’t be able to survive unless people come back into the store in person. I guess we shall see what happens – especially as COVID cases rise and threatens to shut things back down again.

As the big companies continue to compete with each other they start looking more and more alike. Walmart is getting more digital and Amazon is getting more real world. Do you think there will come a day when one buys the other to dominate both worlds? Or are they too big for either one to make a move on the other?
-
Janice – It is interesting to think of the retail experience in regards to grocery stores, we have talked a lot in class about grocery delivery services but it is interesting to hear about the initiatives these large corporations are taking to compete with such services.
Sean – After reading about the future the business landscape, this is definitely up for debate and a big topic as of late. When you mention one company buying another, that is in the realm of consolidation, which honestly has already happened to some degree. Leaving the next question to be how much consolidation will occur, will we really be left with a few mega corporation or will there be a shift to more fragmented organizations within this industry.
I think it is possible that one could overtake another, but I am not sure it will happen based on differences in target marketing between Walmart and Amazon. Although with constant changing in the business landscape, it is hard to predict!
-
Very true. And with all the talk of big tech companies being looked at for anti competition. Will the government step in and force a fragmentation? Who knows. I wish I did so I could make some investments.

Amazon would have more of an opportunity to buy Walmart, however I think they both want to play in their own space…..at least for now anyway.

As a person who loves to shop in person, this pandemic has really changed things for me and many others. As I’ve gotten used to shopping online these past couple of months, I do see the benefit and often wished more local businesses moved to e-commerce. Post-covid, I do agree with you that online shopping will likely to continue to increase as we have become accustomed to it. As more and more businesses move to e-commerce, it will be interesting to see what other products and services they will use to stay relevant and profitable.
