    We sell to Walmart. Lately some of our sales to Walmart have dropped. Mainly because we have raised our prices to cover lost product from shrink. We do see a trend that Walmart may be buying more from us. Interestingly we sell a live, perishable product with limited shelf life. We are also liable for any returned or unsold items but this is normal for our product. Another interesting fact is our product is produced locally and does not ship well so retailers need to purchase from local producers. Walmart started buying from other local producers with lower pricing but has now started to return to us. It is a quality issue. Ours is better. Sometimes the right ideals do win out.
