7 Brew has launched its first walk-thru location inside a Walmart Supercenter in Springdale, Arkansas, marking a significant step in its partnership with the retail giant. This move aims to reach new customers and diversify 7 Brew’s development model as the brand continues its rapid national expansion. The company, which had 180 units in 2023, now operates more than 370 stores across 32 states. The partnership is part of a current trend in which Walmart partners with third-party vendors, often local restaurant chains, to provide customers with in-store dining options.

Key takeaways:

  • 7 Brew opened its first walk-thru store inside a Walmart Supercenter in Springdale, Arkansas, as part of a new partnership to expand its reach.

  • Over 95% of transactions come from loyalty program members, highlighting a strong customer base and personalized service.

  • The Walmart partnership reflects a broader trend of restaurant brands seeking non-traditional locations to enhance visibility and counter declining retail foot traffic.
