The Walmart Museum - Museum in Bentonville - 240 S Main St, USA

Visited the temporary location today. It was a nostalgic journey in time. Walmart is truly an iconic American establishment. Very cool!

Although this place is small, but packed with info. It displays the history of Walmart and sam’s club. Me. Sam Walton attitude of how he see things. It’s a free tour. The staff was friendly and helpful. The location is currently under construction, so they moved it to down the street and fit everything in one room. If you have half and hour to spare, you should stop by. And the town is very cute to walk around too.

The WalMart Museum is under renovation, it might take a year or so. But two blocks down the street, there is the Walmart Lab, a good size and interesting exhibition about this empire.

The location on this main street is already closed for renovation until 2024. Please visit the new temporary museum few blocks away until renovation. Expected to open by mid of 2024

Disappointed that the actual museum was not back open yet. The 'heritage lab" was underwhelming. We made the most of it and at least saw the original location.

Interesting whether you shop at Walmart or not. Walmart is a brand you commonly see all over America, but I didn't know the details this museum offered. As you might expect, the exhibits are glowing and celebratory of their founder Sam Walton, including his office preserved behind glass, his pickup truck, and his wife's wedding dress. No matter how you feel about Walmart, seeing the full timeline from it's founder's birth to the present is a fascinating story of innovation, business, branding, and extraordinary success. There are surprises and nostalgia as you learn about Walmart trying to compete and keep up with changing times. Try some Grapette soda! Please note: The 5 & 10 storefront is the entrance to the museum. Inside the door you will find the gift shop and ticket desk.

A very interesting museum! The story began with the denial of lease renewal to the founder, to running a nationwide business and how humble he was attributing his success to his employees. It goes without saying that stories of 'Karens of the era' are equally intriguing. It is also fun to appreciate the products of the time. I was there in summertime when the cafe was selling a honey ice-cream.

It was interesting to see some history and highlights of the Walmart story but this was not much of a museum. I was a little disappointed. I recommend seeing it for yourself though.
