At a glance
Orders by State maps where your Walmart Marketplace order volume is coming from across the US, broken down by the buyer’s shipping state. It turns a flat order count into a geographic picture you can act on. That helps with fulfilment placement, regional demand planning, and spotting where WFS or carrier choices could speed delivery.
Calculation
Vortex IQ groups your Walmart Marketplace orders for the selected 30-day window by the shipping destination state and counts the orders in each. The result is a per-state distribution rendered as a choropleth, where each state’s shade reflects its share of total volume. As described in the At a glance summary, the unit is a simple order count per region. The worked example below shows how the distribution informs a fulfilment decision.Worked example
A representative reading of Orders by State for a typical merchant on Walmart Marketplace. On 12 Mar 26 a seller sees that roughly 30 percent of trailing-30-day orders ship to California and Texas combined, while the Northeast is comparatively light. Delivery times to the West Coast are stretching because stock sits in a single eastern warehouse. The action is to evaluate WFS placement or a second fulfilment node nearer the West Coast demand cluster to protect dispatch SLA and customer experience.

Reconciling against Walmart Seller Center
Where to look in Walmart Seller Center: Cross-check against the Order Management area, where individual orders carry their shipping address, and any geographic or sales reports Walmart exposes. Summing orders by destination state there should approximate this card’s distribution. Why the Vortex IQ value may legitimately differ:
