The two retailers of­fered similar merchandise assortments, and their stores were close to one another-often facing off from opposite sides of major boulevards. The two were constantly compared- the press rarely covered one without mentioning the other. Walmart was far and away the market leader. And although Target was a distant runner-up, its stylish "cheap chic" position­ing and "Expect More. Pay Less." mantra made it a formidable challenger to Walmart's always-lowest-price positioning. In fact. for years Target grew at a faster rate than Walmart, nibbling away at the giant's market share and posing a genuine threat. But what a difference a decade makes. Since the Great Recession of 2008, Walmart's annual revenues have increased by more than S140 billion while Target's have barely moved. Not only has Walmart improved its game, but increased competition from Amazon, Costco, Kohl's, and dollar stores have flattened Target's growth. Still, Target hasn't given up. It has doubled down on improving its customer experience while at the same time cutting corporate costs. So far, however, its efforts haven't seemed to make much difference. All that may soon change. Target has made a major invest­ ment that it hopes will help it to regain its edge in the retail world and restore its growth. For a cool $550 million in cash, Target recently acquired Shipt. the exploding startup with a thriving same-day delivery network across the United States. With on­line grocery sales exploding, the future of retail favors companies that can deliver goods fast and cheap. With the Shipt acquisition, Target is sending a message-it's serious about establishing a competitive advantage in home delivery. Target plans n9tonly to increase sales of its current inventory but also to become a major player in an area of retail where it has languished-groceries. A New Way to Deliver Groceries Founded in 2014 by a 32-year-old high school dropout, Shipt quickly established itself as a force in the home delivery busi­ ness. After a few failed models, Shipt focused on groceries. Members get unlimited same-day grocery delivery on orders of $35 or more for just £99 a year. The Shipt app and website offer users a seamless experience for ordering and receiving grocer­ies and general merchandise. But Shipt is not a grocer. It's a home delivery service. Rather than invest in its own inventory, Shipt built its business by partnering with grocery chains such as Kroger, Publix , and, of course. Target. When a customer places an order, employees at partner stores don't have to do anything. Instead, one of Shipt's personal shoppers goes to the store, plucks the products from shelves, and delivers them to the customer's home. Shipt shop­pers wear green T-shirts with the company logo. But similar to Uber and Lyft. they are Independent contractors. They drive their own vehicles and work when they want to. A Shipt personal shopper makes between $16 and $22 an hour. Shipt finished its most recent fiscal year with approx imately 100,000 shoppers delivering approximately $1 billion worth of groceries and other merchandise. Ex perts have predicted a reliable model for home grocery delivery to the masses for the past 20 years. Until now, how­ever, efforts have moved slowly, leaving behind many casualties Today, same-day grocery delivery is a rapidly growing sector with many large retail competitors entering the fray. Fueled by the explosion in mobile devices and consumer expectations for instant everything, same-day grocery delivery is more in demand than ever. "One-stop shopping was convenient in the 1990s says one retail analyst. "But for today's families you have to be able to do instant food delivery as well." According to a recent report, online grocery shopping in the United States could expand fivefold, eclipsing $100 billion in annual sales by 2025. Why Partner When You Can Buy? Although the Shipt acquisition may seem sudden for Target was actually a long time coming. Target has always striven to stand out from the rest of the discount retail world by OFFering a more high-end customer experience. With Amazon and Walmart fast establishing their same-day grocery delivery capabilities, Target knew it had to make a move or risk falling further behind. But why buy Shipt instead of simply partnering with it, For starters, the acquisition sends a strong signal to competitors and customers that Target is serious about the grocery business and about delivering its goods better and faster than large competitors. Purchasing rather than partnering with Shipt also gives Target more control.

Product discovery wars 2020: Google vs. Amazon Google renamed its Shopping Express product discovery tool to Google Shopping, and improved capabilities to make it easier for consumers to find and buy products online. Currently, more consumers use Amazon instead of Google to research products because Amazon has made it so easy for them to shop and buy and thus Google’s market share of search ad revenue is expected to drop from 73% this year to 70% by 2021, while Amazon’s market share will grow from 12.9% to 15.9% in the same period, according to an eMarketer forecast. Google’s defensive move to improve its product discovery platform benefits both online retailers and traditional retailers with online stores. By removing the friction from online browsing to purchase, shoppers can now more easily buy products directly through Google’s shopping platform (like they would on Amazon or another retailer’s website). Second, traditional stores with a solid online presence can get their products in front of more shoppers. advantage of the Shipt technology platform across its entire net­ wark of stores, letting it to provide faster and more convenient same-day delivery on a wide variety of goods.

Prior to the acquisition, Target was already partnering with Shipt rival lnstacart. But the strong compatibility between Target and Shipt was apparent to both companies.

"Our localized network of ... shoppers goes above and beyond to make sure our customers are well served." In the Race or Out in Front?
