The End of Walmart?

I remember when Amazon first set up. It was an underdog; no one thought it would ever beat Barnes and Noble.

Now, with the arrival of Amazon Fresh in Seattle I’m starting to wonder if Amazon isn’t in line to be the biggest global retailer sometime in the next few years.

As reported by Leelefever (on CommonCraft) it starts to make you question the future of the supermarket. I don’t think it will stop us using a supermarket but, if Supermarket shopping could be given the Amazon usability tratment and, if Amazon manage the supply chain by delivering too… could this mean a few less sheds on the edges of or cities?

I went supermarket shopping last night and, whilst I don’t hate it; I wouldn’t miss the experience. There is simply very little pleasure in grocery shopping - I would embrace Amazon Fresh if it replaced my big Asda shop…

The question now is… why don’t I feel the same way at using Asda for delivery?
