Walmart's Chief Merchandising Officer Latriece Watkins said the company's merchandise assortment caters to all different groups all year round and that it has not changed.
Chief Merchandising Officer Latriece Watkins said Wednesday that their LGBTQ+ merchandise has not changed and likely would not.
"I think we have merchandise that we sell all year that supports different groups. I'd say in this particular case, we haven't changed anything in our assortment," said Watkins, in response to a question about the Target controversy made at the company’s associate and shareholder week attended by FOX Business. Security measures have not changed either.
"I wouldn't say that there's anything in particular that we've done differently related to security," she added. Walmart declined to comment directly on the controversy surrounding Target or elaborate on their Pride merchandise styles. A FOX Business "Pride" search of the retailer's website turned up an array of products ranging from apparel, beauty and accessories, among other items.
