Key Focus Areas for Operational Excellence
Packaging and Labeling Requirements: It's crucial to get your packaging and labeling right the first time. Walmart has clear requirements for these, and meeting them head-on is your first step towards compliance. Ensure your products are well-protected and labels are correctly placed and easily readable.
Shipping and Routing Instructions: Walmart's instructions on shipping and routing are detailed for a reason. They're designed to optimize the supply chain. Paying close attention to carrier selection, shipping modes, and routing instructions will keep your operations aligned with Walmart’s efficiency goals.
Appointment Scheduling: Walmart's stringent scheduling system for delivery appointments demands attention. Understanding and utilizing Walmart's scheduling tools effectively can save you from the headache of missed appointments and the fines that come with them.
Compliance and Chargebacks: Understanding potential penalties and diligently working to align operations with Walmart’s guidelines is non-negotiable. Regular audits are a must to ensure compliance.
Sustainability Efforts: Walmart is pushing for sustainability, and this extends to its supply chain partners. Integrating sustainable practices into your operations isn't just good for the planet—it aligns you with Walmart's long-term goals and can improve your standing as a preferred partner.
