Glossary Term
WFS (Walmart Fulfillment Services)
Walmart’s e-commerce fulfillment solution where the company stores, picks, packs, and ships orders for third-party sellers on Walmart.com.
Amazon’s Biggest Competitor
WFS is Walmart’s answer to FBA. It allows sellers to leverage Walmart’s massive logistics network to offer two-day shipping to customers. For sellers, WFS often has simpler fee structures and less competition than Amazon, making it a vital part of a multi-channel growth strategy.
WFS Labeling Requirements
Walmart has its own specific labeling standards, including their own version of the product barcode and shipping labels. You cannot just use an Amazon FNSKU for WFS. Having a tool that can resize Walmart’s PDF labels for thermal printers is just as important as it is for Amazon.
- Requires Walmart-specific product and shipping labels.
- Products qualify for the "Two-Day Shipping" badge.
- Excellent for reaching a different customer demographic than Amazon.
