WebVan was conceived by Louis Borders in 1996. The idea occurred to him when some
spices were delivered to him through fedex. He thought there has to be a better way to
delivery grocery online and his goal was last mile leader of Internet commerce.
It’s a simple idea about improving grocery shopping experience of the user by selling
grocery through online platform at a price comparable if not cheaper than traditional
grocery story and deliver them to the user within 30mins. Louis went about hiring the best
management team from the likes of FedEx, Oracle, Goldman, Anderson Consulting etc
with a track record of delivering innovative products. The team was referred as the “Dream
team”. The team had managed 800million USD in initial rounds of investments from VC
and IPO.
Louis idea was also backed by research firm IDC projections – online grocery market 2000
will be worth 3.5 Billion USD and growing to 6.5 billion USD in 2003 with atleast 5% of
US Household buying grocery online.
Louis believed in “first to scale” and not “first to market” philosophy. From 1996 to 1999
he focused on designing and implemented a very sophisticated warehouse(27 DCs each the
size of 18 large stores with investment of 30million) and order management system, which
was very capital and technology intensive. Webvan subsequently spent three years and
hired 80 software programmers to create the proprietary systems linking and automating
many aspects of its business processes. Needless to say, Webvan was betting on IT to be
their strong-point and major cost saver.
