We are pleased to announce that, following updates to the Walmart US Laboratory Assignment List, we are now an approved laboratory for multiple Walmart US fashion departments.
As an approved laboratory supporting additional Walmart US fashion departments, we can help suppliers address quality, safety and compliance testing requirements. This expanded support helps suppliers simplify compliance procedures, reduce risk, accelerate product approvals and bring products to market more efficiently.
Recent department assignments include apparel for children, adults, babies and toddlers, as well as intimates and accessories. Suppliers should refer to the latest Walmart US Third-Party Laboratory Assignment List, which can be found under Retail Link:
Product Quality and Compliance Library > a1 US Product Quality and Compliance Manual > Third Party Laboratory Assignment
Our globally connected laboratory network supports these additional Walmart US testing assignments across key sourcing markets, including Bangladesh, Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Türkiye, the United States and Vietnam. This enables testing to be conducted closer to manufacturing locations, helping reduce turnaround times, simplify coordination and streamline the path from product development to retail launch.
Key benefits for suppliers include:
- Expanded testing support across additional Walmart US fashion departments
- Improved access to testing services in major sourcing hubs
- Reduced turnaround times through localized testing support
- More efficient navigation of Walmart US testing requirements
- Faster and more confident access to Walmart retail channels, both in-store and online
As an approved laboratory, we help fashion suppliers navigate Walmart's compliance requirements with greater efficiency, consistency and predictability. Our global network and technical expertise support smoother market access, stronger supply chain performance and more efficient product commercialization.
This expanded support for Walmart US suppliers helps them meet retailer requirements, reduce compliance risk and bring products to market faster and with greater confidence.
