At Walmart, we utilize Sustainable Value Networks (SVN) to help integrate sustainable practices into all parts of our business. By bringing together leaders from our company, suppliers, academia, government and NGOs, we take a comprehensive approach. And we continue to evolve this structure to better fit and support our progress.
Our SVNs are overseen by two councils — one for operations and one for products. For nearly three years, they’ve been active in evaluating future direction, aligning new goals and engaging members on key topics.
