Walmart Chile and Sercotec partner to support local entrepreneurs

Walmart Chile has awarded 31 entrepreneurs the ‘Golden Ticket’ during the third edition of its Growth Summit. This initiative aims to boost the growth of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in Chile. Out of 699 applicants, 21 winners will become product and service providers, while 10 will join the Walmart Chile Marketplace. The selected entrepreneurs represent various regions, including Rapa Nui, Los Lagos, O'Higgins, Maule, and La Araucanía.

Additionally, Sercotec, an agency under the Ministry of Economy, Development and Tourism, has signed a collaboration agreement with Walmart Chile. This partnership will allow beneficiaries of Sercotec programs to sell their products through specially designated stands and fairs within Lider supermarket branches. The alliance is designed to provide micro, small, and medium enterprises with greater access to new audiences and strengthen their market positioning.
