Walmart is opening small versions of its mega-stores on college campuses. The initiative is part of the chain's new 'Walmart On Campus' initiative.

Globein.com was launched about a month ago and connects more than 100 local artisans from around the world with the online marketplace. The company has regional managers to reach artisans from 14 countries, including Kyrgyzstan, Kenya and China.
