You might be surprised to find that some of our favorite Love List items can be easily be purchased at Walmart… yes, you heard that right… Made in USA at Walmart! But it helps if you know what to look for.
Walmart has launched a major effort in the revitalization of USA based manufacturing. If you have recently been shopping at one of their stores, the efforts are visible. Products are clearly marked and made in USA products are promoted. Their website has a dedicated made in USA shopping section as well.
Know what to look for
We often share tips and resources to make it easier to shop for American made brands. It only takes a little conscious effort. It is often assumed that finding made in USA brands will be tough in a big box store. Sometimes it is challenging, but with large scale efforts like Walmart's, it is becoming easier.
Pairing consumer knowledge with these kind of business practices in stores can be huge for the American economy.
We put together a list of some of our top picks for everyday American made items available at Walmart.
American Made Brands Available at Walmart
1888 Mills Towels, Made Here Towel Collection – The towels are not only made here but the cotton is 100% USA grown. These towels are generous in size, absorbent and soft. Their towels have the look and feel of a more expensive towel yet maintain the expected low price Walmart offers.
A natural and holistic product like Wally's Natural Essential Oils is a welcome find in this big box store. The on-the-go roller ball bottle is an ideal application because it keeps it portable and spill-proof. They offer 5 blends: Balance, Muscle Warming, Calming, Focus, and Energy. Wally's has done all the blending for you so they are ready to use without compromise to your well-being. Their essential oil blends are USDA organic, non GMO and use no synthetic ingredients. I use the energy blend at my mid-day slump to help reinvigorate my motivation. Wally’s Natural Aromatherapy Blends are available on www.walmart.com only, and not in Walmart stores.
The boar bristle hair brushes by Apollo come in a range of barrel sizes for the perfect blowout. American made beauty tools are hard to find so getting one of these some where as convenient as Wal-Mart is a pleasant surprise. Your blow drying time is shorter and more comfortable with one of their brushes. The design skips the molded together plastic for one smooth piece. This stops the breakage of hair from being pulled into the various crevices, this feature makes it stand out to me. The smoothest, most shiny hair comes from boar bristle brushes.
It's easier to commit to buying more American made products once you know to look for some of these widely recognized brands that are made in the USA, easily accessible, and affordable.

1888 Mills Cotton Made in Africa Bath Towel. This is the result from a search at Walmart.com. Please explain how your article says these are made in USA but it clearly says on the site Made in Africa with African cotton.
Cherie, yes, it is a bit confusing. For the 1888 Mills towels made in the USA, sold at Walmart, use this link. Sometimes they are sold under the “Made Here” brand and sometimes they are part of the Better Homes and Gardens collection, but if you read the description, they are made by 1888 Mills in their Griffin, GA factory.
I’ll be happy to shop in Walmart stores I just buying products made in USA the quality is warranty. Congratulations Walmart that is patriotism.
Thank you for this! I had associated Walmart with lots of made-overseas products. I’m going to have to check these products out.
Some of their house brand stuff is also made in the USA
Dr. Teals bath salts at Walmart made in America. They are so awesome and reasonably priced.
I bought your large towels & wash cloths over a year ago at Walmart. I’m waiting for coral colored hand towels & teal &/or coral rugs, bath, I would be so happy!!
Hair Styling Brushes Made in the USA at Walmart? Awesome!!
I have the Made Here towels by 1888 Mills. I love them! I bought the bath sheets, hand towels, wash cloths, & rugs. They hold up great in the wash. They are nice and absorbent, & they didn’t leave tons of lint on us with the first few washes.
Made Here Towel Collection does seem wonderful to purchase. I will look for them on my next trip to Walmart. I need new towels very soon.
We love Lodge! We’ve even been to the factory in South Pittsburg, TN.
The Soft Sea color goes well with my main bathroom decor.
Yeah! Finally some Made in the USA stuff!!
I’ve always known that one of Walmart’s goals was to sell as much USA made product as possible but as our manufacturing base deteriorated their selection shrank. It’s nice to see that there is a growing selection of competitively priced US made goods.
It was Sam’s vision, after him the children ,not so much.
I am glad to see WalMart might be turning a corner. I remember going in and seeing some quilts there, and they said made in America but looking closer they were made in China and just distributed in the USA.
The towels are awesome!! Made in the USA. Love it!
Wow makes me want to shop there more often now, glad to see products made in the USA, they can be hard to find.
Wow I want to shop more at Walmart. I also need towels and want to check these out!
