Do I need to have a U.S. company and tax ID number to apply for Walmart to open an online store?

Walmart e-commerce is actually an "old friend" for China. Back in 2012, Walmart acquired a 51% stake in No. 1 Store; In 2015, it spent another $100 million to acquire the remaining 49 percent of the shares, but the integration did not appear to have been successful. In June this year, Walmart gave its No. 1 store** to JD in exchange for a 5% stake in JD.com.

However, this does not mean that Walmart is leaving the Chinese e-commerce market. In May last year, Walmart announced the launch of the O2O service platform "Quick Buy", which includes the "Wal-Mart" mobile app announced at the same time, the store "Quick Purchase Service Center" for customers to pick up their own goods, and a variety of online and offline mobile electronic payment methods, to achieve online and offline ** consistency. At the initial stage, the company covered fresh food, grain, oil and dry goods, personal care and beauty, household cleaning and other products, including about 1,000 pieces of seasonal fresh food, dairy products and frozen food.

In terms of logistics and distribution, Walmart introduced that it has a dedicated team responsible for picking and packing orders on the Walmart app. However, its delivery is done by a third party, and the delivery team is only responsible for Walmart's delivery business. Consumers can purchase goods of 188 yuan or more free of charge, and can also choose to pick up the goods at any of their designated stores.
