I have a similar strategy in my company.

Then you realize it's not that complicated. Sell to Wal-Mart and let your distribution network take the hit, suffer lower overall margin but deny the field to your competition, or choose not to sell to Wal-Mart, protect your distrubutors, bank the higher margin, and pray your competition doesn't get a boost. I think some folks call this free-market capitalism.

Exactly, this is a good time to remind everyone that Walmart is singled out because of leftist politics.

Home Depot, Cosco, Target, Lowes etc are all roughly the same.

Home depot wipes out many mom and pop stores, and now they wipe out contractors.
