Walmart has become one of the most successful retailers in the world through efficient supply chain management practices. It centralized its distribution system in the early 1980s, pioneering the retail hub-and-spoke system. This allowed Walmart to achieve significant cost advantages by centralized procurement and distributing goods through regional distribution centers to retail stores across the US. Walmart also invested heavily in IT systems to track sales, inventory and collaborate with suppliers.
