Know of a small business or U.S. manufacturer that would be perfect for Open Call? 

Applications for Open Call 2024 are now open and will close July 15, 2024. 

Open Call is the largest sourcing event for Walmart and Sam’s Club where selected American entrepreneurs pitch their product to a Walmart and/or Sam’s Club merchant for the chance to get their product on shelves and online. To be considered, products must be made, grown, or assembled in the United States.

In 2021, Walmart announced a 10-year, $350 billion investment in the future of U.S. Manufacturing that will support more than 750,000 new jobs. Open Call is central to that commitment and during last year’s event alone, Walmart and Sam’s Club merchants heard over 1,000 pitches from more than 700 businesses across all 50 states.

Important Dates:

July 15: Application period closes

Aug. 20: Entrepreneurs are notified if they are selected to pitch

Sept. 24-25: Open Call Event in Bentonville, Arkansas

Please share this information with small/medium businesses or U.S. manufacturers who might be interested in seeing their products on Walmart or Sam’s Club shelves or on Walmart.com!
