Walmart Inc has claimed to have partnered with delivery service Postmates Inc in Charlotte, North Carolina, as part of the retailer's plan to expand its grocery home delivery services to 100 metro areas.
Last month, Walmart said it would expand the service to reach more than 40 percent of U.S. households in its attempt to step up the fight against rival Amazon.com Inc.
Walmart's online grocery delivery service, which provides customers fresh produce, meat, seafood and bakery items to their doorstep, has a fee of $9.95 and a $30 minimum order.
Shares of Walmart were up nearly 1 percent at $87.14 in premarket trading.
