Walmart

This week, and every week, we are grateful to call so many communities across America home. From the customers and members we serve, to the associates who make a difference every day, we’re proud to help everyone save money and live better. 

In this episode of The Huddle, John Furner talks with Chris West of the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and Jennifer Barnhouse of The Nature Conservancy of Arkansas about nature conservation and what Walmart is doing to protect nature with Acres for America. https://bit.ly/4fZhK93                 

I was so proud to talk to investors this morning about how our Walmart U.S. business delivered across the board in Q3. So much of the work our team has done the last five years to become an omnichannel business is coming to fruition, and people outside Walmart are taking notice. This was also a quarter when people saw Walmart at our very best in the wake of Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Many of the communities we serve suffered devastating damage. But in the days and weeks following, a Walmart parking lot or Walmart truck brought relief and hope. I’m so proud of how our people stepped up and will continue to as we help these communities rebuild and reopen. Of course, we’re already deep into the holiday season, and the people of this country want to save money and they want to celebrate. We have the honor of helping them do both, for example by offering a Thanksgiving meal at a lower price than last year. Congratulations to #TeamWalmart on another strong quarter. Now let’s have a strong holiday! https://walmrt.us/3OcM3NQ

Sam's Club had another strong quarter as we continue to make progress toward our strategic priorities. Thank you to our brilliant associates for continuing to deliver for our members, including how they supported those affected by Hurricanes Helene and Milton. I’m grateful for the way we show up when our members need us most.    This quarter, we continued to bring digital engagement to life with the grand opening of our Grapevine, TX, club – our first all-digital club. The joy on members’ faces as they enjoy a friction-free experience throughout the club shows the beginning of the transformation of our business and exemplifies what it feels like to shop in the future.    We also continued to invest in our member value proposition. Delivering a delightful experience starts with investing in our associates, which is why we introduced a new compensation plan to reward frontline associates based on years of service. We also listened to our members and rolled out our new eCommerce shipping proposition that offers a path to free same or next day delivery from club – which contributed to our 26% growth in eComm.   And on world-class curated items, our members told us they’re looking for fresh ways to celebrate cherished traditions while prioritizing high-quality ingredients that are easy to prep. That’s why we introduced our elevated Member’s Mark Thanksgiving meal. Made with premium ingredients, it serves 10 people for $100, is ready to serve in about two hours and is available for pickup or delivery.    Thank you, team Sam’s Club, for all you do for our members! Together, we are pioneering the future of retail experience.

Congratulations to our Walmart International associates around the world for delivering another strong quarter. I love the value, convenience, and service we’re providing our customers and members, and we continue to innovate to make things even better. Well done, Team International!

Associates, thank you for another strong quarter. We continue to have momentum as we work together to save our customers and members time and money. I’m impressed by the way you’re supporting each other and stepping up for our communities while at the same time transforming the business for the future.    As we look ahead to the holidays, let’s keep up the good work and be there for our customers and members as they bring to life their family traditions, or even start new ones. Your hard work really does make a difference and I’m proud to work alongside you. Thank you.

We released the results for Q3 FY25, which show our associates delivering on another strong quarter, with continued momentum. https://walmrt.us/3APdtGo

We’re so grateful to the Walmart Private Fleet for generously donating $163,850 to The #SalvationArmy as part of Walmart’s quarterly Safe Driving Campaign, which encourages Walmart drivers to operate accident-free by donating money for every safe-mile driven. Walmart’s team of drivers completed 20 million safe driving miles in a single week in October, reflecting Walmart’s commitment to safety and their dedication to making a difference in the communities they serve. This gift is just one of the many ways Walmart is supporting communities across the country this holiday season, and we're grateful for every driver and for all the ways Walmart is working with The Salvation Army to do the most good nationwide.  Learn more about the many ways to give back in your community with Walmart and The Salvation Army at salarmy.us/3URrhae #doingthemostgood #givingback #communitysupport
