אודות פרק זה
In this episode, we break down what Walmart Canada suppliers need to know about the Blue Box program. 8th & Walton's Heather Reid explains how Canada’s Blue Box recycling program works, why Walmart is required to report packaging data, and how supplier fees help fund the system.
More importantly, we dig into what’s changing: updated billing timelines, unexpected invoices, and the real impact on forecasting and cash flow. We also cover one of the biggest issues suppliers are facing right now: packaging data accuracy. Outdated or incomplete information can lead to incorrect billing, and many suppliers are still playing catch-up. Heather shares practical steps you can take today to stay compliant and avoid surprises.
Plus, we highlight key resources in Retail Link and the Supplier Information Manual that you should check regularly—including recent updates to distribution center guides and inbound compliance requirements.
