While most major retailers are races to provide buyers with the most practical and fast distance purchase options,Costco Seems to be one of the few operators in transition to digital purchases. It seems that the strategy worked for the retailer, which did not plan to set up its online retail efforts in the near future.

Walmart, Target, Sam Club, Kroger and Aldi All jumped on the bandwidth train from online retail and pickup in-store, but store purchases are always the # 1 priority at Costco, according to CEO Craig Jelinek.

"It's always important to get people physically in the store," he said on"Closing Bell" of CNBC Monday. "I do not think brick and mortar leave."

Although COSTCO has raised some concerns about customer loss, the retailer's slow innovation approach is paying.Renewals for COSTCO members Hit a rate of 91% this year at the end of the fourth quarter, which represents great customer satisfaction. At a time,Sales have increased With more than 16% in October because the average transaction has increased by more than 9%. (In touch:Vitamin doctors exhort everyone to take right now.)

Costco currently offers no grocery collection options, depending onInternal business community. It has limited delivery options, which include a service on the same day for fresh foods with the shipment and a two-day shipment on dry goods. Yet the warehouse challenges the downward trend that affects other retailers when it comes to shopping in store.

Jelinek attached fidelity to the complete store experience, which includes special special offers like the one$ 1.50 Hot Dog Combo and Beverage (which has not changed prices in decades) and $ 4.99 rotisserie chicken (which has become a tradition of Costco Shopper). Although catering contracts are well-known loss leaders for Costco, they clearly serve as incentives for relevant brick and mortar stores for more than 105 million Costco Nationwide cardholders.
