Before the pandemic, consumers were satisfied with one-click ordering that came with 2-day delivery, or even next-day delivery.
Not anymore.
Home delivery this afternoon of goods ordered online this morning has been recast as a must-have service providing a lifeline for millions of families. Same-day delivery surged like never before.
