Walmart Sustainability

Learn how Walmart is working with suppliers to help customers and their families live healthier lives. Walmart one of the worlds largest companies is paving the way for the Green Revolution

Environmental sustainability has become an essential ingredient to doing business responsibly and successfully. At Walmart we have already made great progress in achieving our sustainability goals. However, we still have a way to go and we need your help to get there. As the world’s largest retailer, our actions have the potential to save our customers money and help ensure a better world for generations to come.

Our three aspirational sustainability goals are:

  • To be supplied 100% by renewable energy
  • To create zero waste
  • To sell products that sustain people and the environment

 

Part 1:

Introduction to Health and Nutrition

At Walmart, our journey with nutrition began where everything does—with our customers and our mission of helping people save money and live better. To more and more of our customers, living better means the ability to walk into our stores and find affordable food that will help their families live healthier lives. We believe a family shouldn’t have to choose between food that is more nutritious for them and food they can afford.


Working to Make a Difference

That’s why we’re working with suppliers to reduce salt and sugar in key products, starting with our own Great Value brand. We’re doubling the amount of locally grown produce we buy, supporting the farmers in local communities. Since 2011, we’ve saved our customers $2.3 billion on fresh fruits and vegetables. We’re also providing a new Great for You icon, appearing on select products in our stores, to make it easy for customers to instantly identify more nutritious choices.
