What is Walmart?
Walmart, one of the world's largest retail giants, is a platform that serves millions of customers both in its physical stores and online marketplace.

You Can Open a Store on Walmart with Your Company in Turkey!
Previously, Turkish sellers who wanted to sell on Walmart had to establish a company in the US or transact through third-party firms. However, with new developments, Walmart has opened its doors to Turkish sellers! Now, businesses based in Turkey can open a store directly on Walmart Marketplace. As a result, the process has become much easier for sellers who want to take part in a major marketplace.
