This spring, Walmart customers in Bentonville, Arkansas, will be able to have groceries from their local store delivered into a temperature-controlled HomeValet-powered smart box placed outside their home. This will make it easier for customers to schedule delivery without needing to be home to receive their products in order to keep them fresh.
Left on customers’ porches, the smart box has three settings to store frozen, refrigerated and pantry items until the customer is ready to retrieve them.
