A local hummus and hummus-based food maker is being featured in a regional product showcase by Walmart Inc. after over a year of partnership.

Orlando-based O'Dang Hummus, which began its growth after being featured on a 2015 episode of ABC's Shark Tank, began working with the Bentonville, Ark.-based retailer (NYSE: WMT) in June of last year after company founder and CEO Jesse Wolfe received a distribution deal as part of Walmart's $250 million "Made In the USA" pitch competition. Since the competition, Wolfe told Orlando Business Journal O'Dang's product line has gone from being sold in 400 to more than 5,000 grocery stores in the last 14 months.

And the company wants to double the number of stores its products are sold in 2019 to nearly 10,000.
