The distribution channels that these behemoths employed were
distinctly different in the past (clicks vs. bricks) but are now starting to
merge.

Amazon is rapidly building a network of distribution centers
across the country and many observers believe their ultimate goal is to provide
home delivery to consumers the same day that it is ordered.

Walmart is expanding its own e-commerce capabilities and
leveraging a world-class supply chain system and enormous retail store presence
with the goal of making products ordered online available for pick-up by
consumers at the closest Walmart store on the day it is ordered.

I need help with research in answering the following questions:

•Which approach do you believe will be the most successful?

•Can Amazon really pull off same-day delivery across the
nation (not just select urban markets)?

•Will Amazon overtake Walmart as the world’s largest
retailer (they still have a long way to go)?
