As Walmart E-Commerce Surpasses $150B, Ship.com Helps Independent Sellers Scale - Yahoo Finance
Walmart's e-commerce GMV has surpassed $150B, and Ship.com is positioning itself as a fulfillment/logistics tool specifically for independent Walmart Marketplace sellers. This signals Walmart's continued aggressive push to close the gap with Amazon's third-party seller ecosystem.
Walmart crossing $150B in e-commerce validates the platform as a serious second channel — sellers still treating it as experimental are leaving margin on the table. Agencies should audit client Walmart Marketplace share of wallet now; brands not yet live on Walmart.com are increasingly uncompetitive.
Walmart is no longer a backup channel — it's a primary competitive arena. Platform consolidation between Amazon and Walmart is intensifying, compressing margins for sellers who don't optimize across both.
Check your Walmart Marketplace seller dashboard for Buy Box win rate and shipping speed score — if shipping speed lags, evaluate Ship.com or a comparable 2-day fulfillment partner to avoid suppression.
