Walmart Inc. introduces its e-commerce site to make business easier for small companies while also taking on Amazon. The retail giant firm said that its Walmart Business would offer a new shopping experience to make purchases faster and easier.

Walmart said it is launching its e-commerce platform to help business and non-profit customers save time, money, and less hassle. Users will be able to use various time-saving tools on the site where they can offer their products at low prices every day.

Now that it has its Walmart Business e-commerce platform, the company hopes to achieve its goal of getting a larger share of business customers. The main target is said to be small and mid-size companies.

Moreover, Bloomberg reported that the Walmart Business initiative was designed to provide a one-stop shop for food, office supplies, electronics, and even furniture. The retailer is also planning to add business membership plans that will give users and customers extra savings.

Walmart’s e-commerce platform has been created to cater to the needs of companies and non-profit groups. It promised to make purchases easier and make things more convenient for busy purchasing managers.

“Today, we are excited to announce the launch of Walmart Business as an eCommerce site and customer experience designed to empower SMB and nonprofit customers,” Walmart Business’ senior vice president and general manager, Ashley Hubka, said in the announcement. “Our focus is to remove complexity in purchasing, lower costs and give our customers more opportunities to serve their customers and communities.”

She added, “Walmart Business is built to leverage the very best of Walmart - our unmatched operating scale. “As we continue to evolve the shopping experience, we are committed to listening to SMB and nonprofit customers to help them address the challenges they face today and the ever-changing challenges that come with running an organization.”
