Where is Walmart headquartered?

Walmart's global headquarters — the 'Home Office' — is in Bentonville, Arkansas, a city of approximately 60,000 in the northwestern corner of the state. Sam Walton set up his first variety store in Bentonville in 1950 and never relocated; the company has been headquartered there for 76 years. The address is 1 Customer Drive, Bentonville, AR 72716.

In January 2025, Walmart began a phased opening of its new $1 billion+ Home Office campus, starting with the first building (called Cheer). The campus move-in was completed in January 2026 with the opening of the final building — the full build-out consisting of 12 office buildings spread across 350 acres and designed by Gensler with landscape architecture by SWA Group. The campus features mass timber construction, smart building technology, a 360,000-square-foot Walton Family Whole Health & Fitness Center, a childcare center, sustainable man-made lakes, 8+ miles of integrated biking trails, and street-front retail and dining (including Flyway Brewing, Wright's BBQ, a Walmart Pharmacy, and an AC Hotel). All 15,000+ corporate associates slated for the campus have moved in.

The campus is deliberately integrated into downtown Bentonville's urban fabric rather than isolated in a suburban office park — a design choice that reflects Bentonville's emergence as a cycling and arts destination (it hosts the Walmart Arkansas Music Pavilion, the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art founded by Alice Walton, and over 100 miles of mountain biking trails) and aligns with Walmart's goal of attracting top technology talent to Northwest Arkansas.

Walmart Global Tech maintains its primary U.S. engineering footprint in San Bruno and Sunnyvale, California — where WalmartLabs has operated since the early 2010s — and in Hoboken, New Jersey, which serves as the e-commerce operational headquarters and houses key leadership for Walmart.com marketplace and fulfillment. Austin, Texas and Reston, Virginia round out the major domestic tech offices. Engineers and data scientists in Bengaluru, India represent one of the largest non-U.S. technology concentrations, supporting product, data science, and platform teams alongside the Flipkart campus.

International retail operations are anchored by Walmex's Mexico City headquarters (Walmart de Mexico is itself a publicly traded company on the Bolsa Mexicana de Valores), the Flipkart campus in Bengaluru, Walmart Canada offices in Mississauga (Ontario), a substantial technology center in San Jose, Costa Rica supporting supply chain and data operations, and R&D offices in Tel Aviv (acquired through Aspectiva, an AI product-recommendation startup, and Zeekit, an AR fashion-fitting startup) supporting AI and fashion-tech work.

Two acquisitions have added specialized office presence: the Vizio team (headquartered in Irvine, California) operates as a subsidiary under CGO Seth Dallaire's oversight, and the One/OnePay fintech team operates from San Francisco as a joint venture. These locations are not consolidated into Walmart's traditional corporate real estate footprint but represent meaningful technical and product teams.

For enterprise vendors targeting Walmart, the buyer landscape is geographically concentrated but distributed across the relevant division. Core corporate and executive decisions happen in Bentonville (CT/MT time zone); most C-suite meetings require travel there — Bentonville is served by XNA (Northwest Arkansas National Airport) with direct flights from Dallas/Fort Worth, Chicago O'Hare, Denver, and a growing number of hubs. The new Home Office campus has extensive meeting and conference facilities and actively encourages supplier and vendor visits. Plan for multi-trip engagement; Walmart's Bentonville culture values relationship-building over transactional meetings.

Technology and e-commerce decisions are partly made in Hoboken, NJ (accessible from New York City) and the California Bay Area (Sunnyvale/San Bruno) — making those tech hubs natural field-sales and account-based-marketing targets for martech, adtech, developer tools, and infrastructure vendors. Bengaluru is a growing engineering decision-making center for platform, data, and AI tools, particularly relevant for vendors selling into Walmart Global Tech's machine learning and data infrastructure stack. Retail media and marketplace program decisions are centered in Bentonville with key account teams distributed nationally.

Practical territory notes: Walmart's Bentonville-first org culture means decision-making authority concentrates there even for deals originating in California or New Jersey. Category buyers almost never travel — engaging them requires visiting Bentonville. The fiscal year ends January 31, so strategic budget planning peaks in the May–August window; outreach for the following fiscal year is ideally started by September of the current year to influence budget allocation.
