Movista Partners with Walmart on Smartphone App
By Mark Carter
Innovate Arkansas client firm Movista of Bentonville has partnered with Walmart on a smartphone app that enables users to pre-order food and other merchandise.
Here's more from Just Good News. With the app, available through the App Store and Google Play, users can pre-order food from the new Walmart to GO concept store in Bentonville and other stuff -- anything you'd otherwise shop for in person -- from a regular Walmart.
"It’s super simple to use and eliminates line-time for customers," Movista co-founder April Seggebruch told Just Good News. "There are a lot of apps in the world but any app that gets me hot ribs and cold potato salad is magic in my book."
(Ribs and tater salad. From a c-store. That's awesome. We just love April and fellow co-founder Stan Zylowski, pictured above...)
