Walmart celebrated the grand opening of its third owned and operated milk processing facility in Robinson, Texas — a major milestone that will create more than 400 new jobs, strengthen Walmart’s end-to-end supply chain for affordable, high-quality milk, and advance the company’s long-standing commitment to US manufacturing and local sourcing. The more than 300,000-square-foot state-of-the-art facility represents more than a $350 million investment.
Sourcing milk directly from local dairy farmers, the Robinson facility will process and bottle a variety of milk options — including gallon, half-gallon, whole, 2%, 1%, skim, and 1% chocolate milk — for Walmart’s Great Value and Sam’s Club Member’s Mark brands. The new operation will supply more than 650 stores and Sam’s Clubs across the South-Central US, helping ensure customers and members have consistent access to high-quality, affordable milk.
John Laney, executive vice president - food, Walmart US, said, “The opening of our new facility in Robinson, Texas, will help us deliver more of what our customers want — fresh, affordable food and quality they can trust. It will bolster our capacity to meet the demand for high-quality milk, make our supply chain more resilient, while increasing freshness by reducing the time from dairy farm to shelf, bringing more consistency, more transparency and more value to our customers. We’re excited about what this means for Walmart customers, regional farmers, and the Robinson community.”
