DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rancher’s Premium Smokehouse Sausage is expanding its retail presence in Walmart stores nationwide. Rancher’s distribution will grow from 2,000 to nearly 4,000 Walmart locations, doubling its reach and bringing its bold, hickory-smoked flavors to customers across the United States.

This growth marks a major milestone for the brand as it becomes one of the fastest-growing smoked sausage brands in the country and moves toward full national distribution.
