In what city is Walmart's corporate headquarters located?

Walmart’s corporate headquarters is located in Bentonville, Arkansas.

The company’s Bentonville connection dates to Sam Walton’s Walton’s 5 & 10 store on the town square, which he purchased in 1950. Although Walmart opened its first discount store in nearby Rogers in 1962, the company established its home office and first distribution center in Bentonville in 1970.

Bentonville is in northwest Arkansas, near Rogers, Fayetteville, and Bella Vista. Those nearby cities are common mix-ups because Walmart’s stores, suppliers, and regional operations are spread throughout the region. Rogers was the birthplace of the Walmart chain, but it is not the corporate headquarters city.

Walmart historically used the term “Home Office” for its headquarters. In 2025, the company opened the first portion of a new 350-acre Home Office campus in Bentonville, replacing older offices and consolidating many corporate employees. The headquarters’ location reflects the company’s long-standing roots in northwest Arkansas.
