Walmart Supplier Requirements

A guide to qualified audits and certifications 

Congratulations on becoming a Walmart supplier. Doing business with Walmart will require meeting key requirements as outlined on their supplier portal. Walmart recognizes certain certifications and audit schemes and uses third-party audits to assess whether their standards are being upheld by their suppliers.

You may need to supply certain certifications and your products, facilities, and records may need to undergo audit or inspection. For instance for food products or produce you may be required to obtain a combination of Food Safety, Responsible Sourcing or Integrated Pest Management (IPM) Verification audits.
