Walmart Canada Growth Summit

 

Millions of Canadians rely on Walmart Canada’s everyday low prices, one-stop shop assortment, and convenient omnichannel shopping experience. To better serve customers and the needs of Canada’s growing communities, we’re always looking for ways to strengthen our assortment and collaborate with Canadian businesses.

 

The 2026 Walmart Canada Growth Summit will take place on June 23, 2026.

 

The Walmart Canada Growth Summit is an opportunity to bring the Canadian seller and business community together and provide the resources they need to grow with Walmart Canada, with sessions focused on better understanding Walmart’s ecosystem and accelerating their business with Walmart. 

 

This unique event welcomes small- and medium-sized Canadian businesses, including Marketplace sellers, to Mississauga, Ontario to connect directly with Walmart Canada’s Merchandising and Marketplace teams and explore opportunities to grow their business in-store and online, including Walmart Canada’s rapidly expanding online Marketplace. 

 

Attendees will benefit from:

  • Keynotes from Walmart’s Canadian Leadership Team on merchandising and marketplace strategy and innovation
  • Deep dives into new supplier and seller tools, services and fulfillment capabilities
  • Networking opportunities with Walmart Canada merchants, Marketplace teams and the Canadian seller and business community
  • Practical guidance on expanding assortment and reaching millions of Walmart customers

 

At the event, select Canadian businesses will also have the opportunity to pitch their ‘Made in Canada’ or ‘Product of Canada’ products* directly to Walmart Canada merchants for a chance to earn a Golden Ticket, representing the opportunity to be listed in-store, online or both.

 

There are two ways to apply:

If you have a Made in Canada* or Product of Canada item*.

If you don’t have a Made in Canada* or Product of Canada* item, but you’re a Canadian business, including Marketplace sellers.
