Walmart GoLocal and IBM Partnership: A New Era in Retail Logistics

Walmart's white-label delivery service Walmart GoLocal is being integrated with IBM's order management system IBM Sterling Order Management, offering retailers easier access and implementation capabilities. This integration aims to enable retail customers to integrate Walmart GoLocal into their business systems in a "user-friendly and highly customizable" manner.

IBM Sterling Order Management helps retailers accurately monitor inventory levels, coordinate third-party logistics services, and organize customer orders with shipping options. When an order is placed and ready to be shipped, users can take advantage of various delivery options offered by Walmart GoLocal, such as same-day and next-day delivery. ​

This partnership between Walmart GoLocal and IBM is viewed as part of the service's strategy to expand its customer base. The service became available on Salesforce Commerce Cloud in 2023, which enabled retailers like Hibbett to access the service more easily. Since its launch in 2021, Walmart GoLocal has completed over 30 million deliveries and has diversified its service offerings beyond light parcel delivery from stores.
