As the hometown and international headquarters of Walmart, Bentonville is one of the fastest growing cities in Northwest Arkansas. With over 54,000 residents, Bentonville is the ninth-largest city in Arkansas, and is also the county seat of Benton County, the State’s 2nd largest county. Located in the middle of the Ozarks, the area was historically used as hunting grounds by the Osage Nation, and the first Westerners to arrive named their settlement Osage. Soon after it was designated the county seat in 1836 the city would change its name to Bentonville in honor of Thomas Hart Benton, who had advocated strongly for Arkansas Statehood. When Sam Walton opened his first store on the Bentonville Square in 1950 he probably never imagined this would be the first step in turning Bentonville into the hub of international business and retail innovation it is today. Farris Insurance is here to protect your business. Whether you’re long-established or just staking your ground, we’ve got you covered.
Bentonville Economy
Before Walmart grew into a household name, the economy of Bentonville was historically centered around agriculture. Now with Walmart as it’s base, Bentonville boasts a community of some of our state’s most innovative startups and has become a hub of innovation. Being located in the Center of the Ozarks, Bentonville also has become a popular tourist destination and is home to world class museums, restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues.
Bentonville has a huge retail marketplace economy. Many vendors, including some of the nation's largest consumer brands have a large presence there. Subsequently, there are administrative, executive, and support operations. In addition, technology is a growing sector in the city. Other major business sectors include restaurants, entertainment, construction, and real estate.
Bentonville features some great cultural attractions, most notably, the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, one of the finest collections of American Art in the world. Other attractions include the Scott Family Amazeum, the 21C Hotel and Museum, and the Museum of native American History.
Downtown Bentonville, including Bentonville’s historic square, is a growing area of fine restaurants, unique bars and happening venues. Commercial space, and office development are also booming.
