Walmart Inc.’s online marketplace is getting more choosy.
The retailer’s website -- where third-party vendors sell their own wares -- is adding far fewer sellers a month compared with a year ago, according to data tracker Marketplace Pulse. The site, which Walmart created in 2009 to compete with a similar offering from Amazon.com Inc., now includes about 18,000 sellers.
