The retailer has tested sensory hours in stores earlier this year.
This is not the first time that Walmart has been trying this. As part of his return to school initiative, the retailer tested sensory hours for the first time in July and August, according to a previous July Press release . But the special purchasing experience did not take place until Saturday morning during these two months, and not all stores were included.

The Walmart initial test during the return to school season is what prompted the retailer to extend these sensory hours to all stores.

"We like to be part of a team that can help create a culture where everyone feels they belong," said Walmart. "Belonging seems different for each person, but when we listen to and appreciate everyone's perspectives, a thoughtful change can occur."
The retailer added: "We continue to welcome comments on how we can improve these sensory measures in our stores. Our mission is to help families save money so that they can live better, and we will continue to take action to keep this promise for all those who go through our doors. "

And Burt Flickinger , Retail expert and managing director of the Strategic Resource Group Detail Consulting Services, told The News Outlet that this change is an intelligent commercial decision for the company.
"At a time when discounters are in competition more aggressively with the dollars of consumers, Walmart builds not only good will with its buyers, but these changes could also bring more buyers in its stores and keep them To do longer, "said Flickinger.
The morning deadline is also a good choice for buyers who can have special requirements because "this is not the busiest period of the day for Walmart stores", according to Flickinger. "The busiest times tend to be from 3:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. after school, on the way back to work, or Sunday evening," he noted.
