"More and more, more and more digital, in particular, I think you'll see in our stores next year, as we start combining these digital products and they interface with each other, you'll see that represented in Wal-Mart"
About this Quote
The specific intent is investor-and-media calibration. Scott isn’t announcing a single product or strategy; he’s announcing a direction of travel. "Digital, in particular" signals he’s heard the anxiety of the moment: retail can’t stay purely physical while consumers migrate to screens and ecosystems. By framing the future as "combining these digital products" that "interface with each other", he borrows the language of platforms - the promise that gadgets talk, services sync, and convenience compounds. Interoperability becomes a kind of magic word: not just stuff on shelves, but a network effect you can buy into.
The subtext is defensive and expansive at once. Wal-Mart, the brick-and-mortar colossus often caricatured as analog, wants to be seen as the gateway to modernity for mainstream America. "Represented in Wal-Mart" is tellingly passive; it implies digital transformation as a merchandising update rather than a structural rewrite. The context is a retail landscape staring down e-commerce and big-tech ecosystems, where saying "we’re integrating" buys time - and projects inevitability - even when the details aren’t ready for daylight.
