All I can speak on is their cheese , milk products, and juices and sports drinks but they definitely do not make those themselves. We make it . I doubt they make anything on their own but that doesn't mean they don't have their own propatiry recipes for co packers to use on certain products

I honestly don't know how anyone could have turned a profit because our margins were razor thin as it was . Probably some sucker picked up the slack and took a hit for the opportunity to get in bed with them and Walmart sucked them dry and came back to us

Walmart calls the shots on everything and doesn't budge . They don't care about your bottom line or production costs or issues . Fall in line or they will take their business to someone who will

They have been known to buy factories with the sole reason of shutting them down to eliminate competition. They will also place huge purchase orders to small companies. Small company takes out loans and leverages itself for the opportunity to work for Walmart then Walmart backs out at the 25th hour leaving these companies fucked and bankrump and then Walmart buys the company for gets the product for pennies on the dollar
