Overview
At Walmart, we believe in a philosophy of operating globally and giving back locally. From increasing local tax revenues and lowering overall pricing on goods, to boosting customer traffic at surrounding stores and creating new jobs, Walmart takes every opportunity to be a good neighbor. As a retailer, employer, and business leader, we know we can make the greatest impact by making changes right in the neighborhoods where we work and live.
