MONTRÉAL, Sept.12, 2017 /CNW/ - Today, Walmart Canada announced the launch of its new convenient and easy Online Grocery Pickup service. It allows consumers to shop for their groceries online on Walmart.ca, and have it ready to pick up at one of the seven locations to begin offering this service this month in the metropolitan area.

From the comfort of their living room or between two trips, customers simply choose a location and a time slot and trained grocery associates will prepare their grocery order, carefully selecting each product. They then pull into a designated online grocery pickup parking spot, call the assigned phone line and their order will be brought out to them and loaded into their vehicle.

''We know our customers want to save money and time, without compromising on the quality of their food products. For us, it is essential that our customers have a convenient and easy shopping experience that meets their expectations and fits their lifestyle'', said Cyrille Ballereau, vice president of Operations for Eastern Canada at Walmart Canada.

Dedicated associates have been trained in the participating stores to rigorously choose the freshest items and carefully pack them. Grocery pickup is a free service and consumers will be able to order up to 21 days in advance.
