Indian businesses selected to retail on the Walmart Marketplace will have access to Walmart Fulfilment Services, ET Bureau reported. This will enable them to use the business’ warehousing and delivery infrastructure in the U.S. India is already one of Walmart’s top markets for sourcing and the business aims to increase the number of Indian businesses it brings to the U.S. market with this initiative. 
 
“Building on our long history of partnership with Indian exporters, Walmart is now offering Indian businesses the opportunity to further their export dreams as Marketplace sellers,” said Walmart’s vice president of emerging markets and business development Michelle Mi in a statement, ET Bureau reported. “They will be able to leverage our global supply chain infrastructure and receive support to help them reach millions of daily customers in the U.S.”

Walmart Marketplace already features a number of Indian businesses including jewellery business Touchstone Gems & Jewelry, textiles business Welspun, and leather goods business Delphi Leather India, among others. 
 
“Outstanding ‘Make in India’ brands can expand their global networks, learn export best practices and diversify their product categories in concert with Walmart as they take on the world,” said Walmart-owned Flipkart’s chief corporate affairs officer, Rajneesh Kumar.
