PlantX Life Inc said it has started selling its products on Walmart Marketplace in the US.
The company noted its product selection on Walmart Marketplace will include 500 plant-based grocery items ranging from a variety of brands such as Oatly, Nature's Path, Made in Nature, and Simply Organic.
“The decision to apply and launch as a Seller on Walmart's US Marketplace was inspired by PlantX's experience as a Seller on the Walmart Marketplace in Canada, where PlantX has launched over 900 distinct plant-based items since June,” said PlantX Life CEO Lorne Rapkin in a statement.

“The new agreement will enable PlantX to integrate its growing selection of plant-based products onto the Walmart platform in the US and have access to Walmart's extensive customer network and digital marketing resources, while maintaining full control over our inventory, pricing, fulfilment and customer care,” Rapkin added.
As well, PlantX has announced that it will be broadcasting a vodcast with tennis star Venus Williams at 7 PM EDT today, in which Williams will discuss the benefits of a plant-based diet and how it’s helped her improve her health and her sport. She will even share some advice for young athletes just starting out. The vodast can be found here.
Vancouver-based PlantX Life styles itself as the digital face of the plant-based community with a one-stop destination for all things plant-based, like an online shop and meal delivery services.
The online shop houses over 5,000 vegan products, and its recently added meal service delivers chef-created dishes straight to the doors of Western Canada. All in all, the company offers more than 10,000 plant-based products.
