Respond to at least two of your peers with meaningful content.1st students reponse

1.Being able to buy an established business makes your profit margin more predictable and increases the speed of improving the company. A small profitable business takes a long time to grow customers, employees, and distribution systems. If a large business with disposable profits comes in and funds the operation it can grow at a quicker rate.


2.Walmart acquiring non traditional retailers changes the way customers shop. It has been a process which has been going on my whole life. We have slowly moved away from brick and mortar. We know the easiest way to get a good deal is to go online and find it. As shopping has gotten less personal it has become frustrating when we have questions. It is a pain to call customer service call centers to figure out how to fix an order.


3.Curbside pickup and online ordering are the big push at this time. It just so happens during our current stay at home order this fits nicely with the direction major retailers are trying to go. Fewer shoppers in stores mean more room to stock items. If a shelf doesn't need to look good or the store be clean and organized then orders can be filled through machine systems with fewer employees needed. This also cuts down on large groups of people which cuts down on the chances of mass shooting.

Walmart purchasing established web businesses has the benefit of giving them access to the new companies' regular customers and the profits from regular purchases . This decision also allows them to immediately have an online presence as a retailer rather than having to build one from scratch with a brand name that is recognized and seen as reliable to online shoppers.


Walmart's acquisition of nontraditional retailers may affect their customers' shopping habits by causing an increase in purchases. Once these new purchases options are implemented through advertising and incentives, Walmart customers may consider purchasing items that are either splurge purchases or expensive planned purchases: like purchasing a pair of shoes seen online that was not planned, or buying a large item like furniture or equipment that the consumer would need shipped and would not purchase in store.


Aggressive measures to implement e-commerce purchases could lead to Walmart locations revamping how they view purchases; store management may be encouraged to advertise and encourage online purchases when appropriate to in-person customers. They may need to research new ways to make regular customers feel appreciated, meeting demands for goods wanted, and finding opportunities to streamline in store service.

Retail Boom e-Commerce and Retailers Behaviour:
Just to give a brief overview It’s just like the Ta
ta’s taking over of a successful brand in its own segment like Jaguar Land rover. Similarly, Walmart who is a big fish in the retail market has gone deep in its analysis to capture the market either by its presence in maximum cities in a country or by providing maximum product lines to its valued customers. They have also gone aggressing in the e-commerce platform.
