Walmart Supply Chain Research

In the increasingly competitive global retail industry, supply chain management has become a critical factor for companies to gain a competitive edge. As a global retail leader, Walmart's supply chain management system has long been regarded as an industry benchmark. However, with the rise of e-commerce, evolving consumer demands and growing uncertainties in global supply chains, its supply chain management faces new challenges. Based on existing literature and relevant data, this paper focuses on the core advantages of Walmarts supply chain management, including advanced information technology applications, efficient logistics networks, and supplier collaboration mechanisms. The paper then explores the main challenges Wal-Mart currently faces, such as inventory management optimization, omnichannel integration, and enhancing supply chain resilience. Building on this analysis, the paper proposes optimization strategies, including strengthening digital supply chain construction, refining inventory management strategies, improving supply chain sustainability, and enhancing supply chain resilience.
