Walmart Open Call Basics

What Is Walmart Open Call?

Walmart Open Call is a program where companies who have products made, grown, or assembled in the USA can apply to pitch their items to Walmart. Walmart’s goal is to promote US jobs and the US economy, by giving domestic suppliers of any size a chance to present.

In addition to the chance to pitch items to Walmart buyers, Open Call has evolved into an event with numerous educational opportunities for prospective suppliers. These programs can help entrepreneurs learn important industry information that is usually only known by those who have been long-time suppliers, or by those who work in closely related industries. Open call is an annual program.

Why Is Open Call Important?

It can be challenging to get a meeting with Walmart. Timing, buyer contact, and shelf space availability can all be very challenging. Walmart Open Call is a great opportunity for Walmart to level the playing field. Walmart has recognized that larger companies can sometimes have an intrinsic advantage and this is their way of providing opportunities to companies that may need a bit more help.
