Weve tailored our partnerships to meet the top rider needs; in fact, the partnerships below represent eight of the top ten activities our riders do when they get in a Waymo, the company wrote in a blog post announcing the partnerships.
Here are the company specific rides Waymo will be providing customers:
Walmart: Customers will be offered savings to place orders for groceries on Walmart.com. As the orders are being prepared at a local store in the Phoenix area, Waymo vehicles will transport customers to and from Walmart to pick up their groceries.
AutoNation: As customers are having vehicles serviced at AutoNation dealerships, they will be offered rides in a Waymo, rather than a loaner car.
Avis: Waymo vehicles will drop off and pick up rental car customers at two locations in the Phoenix suburb of Chandler.
DDR Corp.: The real estate investment trust, which owns shopping centers like the Ahwatukee Foothills Towne Center in Chandler, Arizona, will offer shoppers and diners rides in Waymo self-driving vehicles.
Element Hotel: Select guests of the hotel in Chandler will have access to Waymo vehicles to use on local trips.

Why would they not just use the waymo to deliver the groceries?
UNLESS, people who cannot drive want to go enjoy the freak show at Wally Mart, either as spectator or participant...

I think eventually they will.
Walmart is supposed to start delivering this year, but it’s a different project than Waymo.
One year in, our early rider program and our extensive on-road testing is helping us build the worlds most experienced driver. In fact, our fleet of cars across the U.S. is now driving more than 24,000 miles daily; thats the equivalent of an around the world road trip! Heres a quick report on how our riders use Waymo, what weve learned, and whats next.
