It is learned that according to foreign media reports, Walmart Puerto Rico recently announced that it will hold an Open Call PR to increase the purchase of locally produced and processed products.

Local suppliers interested in showcasing their products to buyers from Walmart and Amigo stores in Puerto Rico during the event can register to attend from September 2 to 24, with the event set to take place online on October 27.

Viviana Mercado, senior manager of corporate affairs for Walmart Puerto Rico, said that this event will promote business activities and create jobs, benefiting the socio-economic development of the Puerto Rican community. Walmart will hold more events like this in the future to promote the development of local businesses and potentially strengthen its ties with global retailers.

Walmart Puerto Rico has reportedly purchased $34 million worth of products in the past three years, far exceeding expectations. Walmart said it expects to purchase $60 million by 2023, mostly local products, which will greatly promote the development of local entrepreneurs and manufacturers, thereby reducing the number of imported products.
