Walmart said that its same-day delivery network, supported by 4,600 stores and covering 95% of the U.S. population, enabled customers to receive Black Friday orders within hours.

Walmart delivered 57% more orders from stores year over year, with 44% more orders arriving in under three hours.

The fastest delivery, a Shark Steam & Scrub Mop, reached a customer in West Valley City, Utah, in 10 minutes.

Walmart Marketplace achieved a single-day conversion record, with PlayStation 5 consoles and Labubus among the leading sellers.

The company said that nearly 10 million shoppers used the Walmart app in stores during the weekend to check availability, compare prices and navigate aisles.

Customers who use the app while shopping typically spend 25% more per trip, according to Walmart.
