Walmart Packaging Terms: Each, Pack, Case, & Pallet

New suppliers to Walmart are sometimes confused about the different terms used for Walmart packaging.

Walmart’s hierarchy of packaging has four straight-forward levels:

• EACH – A unit intended for individual sale.
• PACK – A group of individual units, together in one package. Several PACKS may go into a CASE.
• CASE – A standard shipping unit.
• PALLET – A load of several CASES.

The confusion happens because two of the terms (PACK and CASE) have many different names, and these terms are often used interchangeably — even by Walmart staff — and can have shades of subtle differences.
