Nutrisystem Inc. (NASDAQ: NTRI) will soon be coming to your local Wal-Mart Stores Inc. (NYSE: WMT) location in the first partnership between the two companies -- and the first retail exposure for the venerable infomercial nutrition company.
Nutrisystem's 14-day "Starter Program" will start hitting Wal-Mart shelves in over 3,200 locations starting now -- and just in time for the holiday rush and also in time to become somewhat entrenched leading up to the 2010 New Year's holiday (and all those resolutions). Like many other brands, though, will this tarnish Nutrisystem's brand? Nah -- or Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) would have never allowed its chic and still uber-popular iPhone for sale inside Wal-Mart either.
