Walmart growth summit to help MSMEs access cross border trade supply

Walmart will be hosting its first growth summit in India on February 14–15, 2024, in New Delhi. It will offer export-ready suppliers, micro-medium and small enterprises (MSMEs) for cross-border trade suppliers, and innovative supply chain companies an opportunity to pitch for business. The application process started on November 9, and registration for the event will close on December 11. The two-day event will bring together Indian companies and several dozen Walmart buyers from the United States to evaluate their products for export, with buyers offering real-time, on-the-ground deals and prospects. Aligned with Walmart’s commitment to annually source USD 10 billion of goods from India by 2027, the goal of the event is to partner with the Make in India initiative. The company also continues to make progress by growing and training MSMEs through Walmart Vriddhi, a program launched in 2019 to empower 50,000 entrepreneurs to participate in domestic and global supply chains.
