business news in context, analysis with attitude

InternetRetailer.com reports that Grocery Gateway is leveraging its home delivery infrastructure, which thus far has been mostly focused on food, by delivering product for companies such as Home Depot, Staples and Starbucks.

If these alliances work out, the goal is to expand the service to other retailers in the Toronto area.

Great ideas are great ideas…
