Walmart (Bentonville, Ark.) has taken the wraps off a comprehensive brand refresh that it says reflects its evolution as a people-led, tech-powered omnichannel retailer.
“Walmart aims to be an inspirational, digital retailer that provides all the products, brands and services our customers need and want. This update, rooted in the legacy of our founder, Sam Walton, demonstrates our evolving capabilities and longstanding commitment to serve our customers of today and tomorrow,” said William White, SVP and Chief Marketing Officer, Walmart U.S. “While the look and feel of our brand is more contemporary, our refreshed brand identity reflects Walmart’s enduring commitment to both Sam’s principles and serving our customers however they need us. As our customers evolve, we will too.”

Some key features of the brand’s refresh:
- The updated wordmark is inspired by Sam Walton’s classic trucker hat and brought to life with a modern, custom font that differentiates Walmart from the crowd.
- The spark exudes the energy of Walmart and remains a beacon that guides customers through all facets of the Walmart experience.
- The color palette—True Blue and Spark Yellow—leans on the retailer’s most recognizable tones and its heritage of blue, while ushering in new updates to keep the brand fresh.
Walmart said it will apply the refreshed brand across all its channels and customer touchpoints, from its website and app to its stores and new Home Office opening in Bentonville, Ark., in January 2025. That process began in October at its Store 4108 in Springdale, Ark., and remaining stores will continue to be redesigned over time.
The world’s largest retailer, Walmart has 10,500 stores and eCommerce websites in 19 countries. With fiscal year 2024 revenue of $648 billion, it employs approximately 2.1 million associates worldwide.
