That's a fair proportion of Walmart's 4200-plus outlets (when Walmart supercenters, discount stores, Neighborhood Markets and Sam's Club warehouses are included). From November 14, Snapfish customers will also have the option of collecting prints from more than 250 Duane Reade drug stores in Manhattan. Selected stores will also offer pick-up service for large poster prints, wall calendars, hardcover photo books and photo cards. "We are committed to offering Snapfish customers the ultimate in choice and convenience when it comes to printing their digital photos and gifts," said Ben Nelson, general manager of Snapfish by HP. "Our relationships with Walmart and Duane Reade extend our reach and leadership in the print-to-store category, making our prints available for pickup in more than 10,000 retail locations nationwide," he added. The Snapfish web sites allows users to find a nearby pickup location by entering a zip code when ordering. HP officials suggested the tie-up with Walmart and Duane Reade will make Snapfish the largest print-to-store service in the US. Analyst firm InfoTrends has detected a trend towards online ordering of photo prints. "We predict that online orders will account for nearly half of all retail photo printing within a few years," said said InfoTrends analyst Alan Bullock. In Australia, Snapfish offers a pickup service through Kmart and Rabbit Photo. |
