• Wal-Mart is reaching out to local, earth-friendly vendors to supply products and services to be sold in Illinois stores. Local vendors can contact a local Wal-Mart store and meet with the manager to pitch a product or service. If the manager approves the vendor's idea, it will be sent to Wal-Mart's corporate office for a final decision. If approved, the vendor will be able to place products or services for a six- to 12-month trial period and may continue after that if successful. For store locations, visit www.walmartstores.com.
