Walmart Retail Services and Products

Walmart is a global leader in retail, functioning as a massive distributor for thousands of brands while also producing its own private labels like Great Value and Equate. The company was founded by Sam Walton in 1962, initially serving rural communities in the United States before expanding into a worldwide powerhouse. While Walmart is headquartered in the US, its supply chain is global.

Manufacturing for Walmart's private label products occurs in numerous countries including the USA, China, Vietnam, and India, depending on the specific product category. The brand is synonymous with large-scale logistics and low-cost retail models. In 2026 and beyond, Walmart continues to dominate the brick-and-mortar and e-commerce spaces through its primary US operations and various international investments.
