This program was a cooperative venture of Wal-Mart Stores Inc., and Southwest Missouri State University.   The Wal-Mart Innovation Network Program was established for the purpose of evaluating new products for their likelihood of commercial success and for potential distribution through Wal-Mart's many retail centers.   The Square Shooter products were evaluated over a range of forty-two criteria including environmental impact, competitive advantages, demand trends, product lifecycle, market attractiveness, and market potential. The combined score given to the products was higher than 93% of ideas, inventions and products submitted to the program during the same time period. In addition, the Square Shooter products received the highest rating available on positive environmental impact, production feasibility and overall market potential.   "We have always believed that the truly innovative and environmentally friendly technology behind the Square Shooter product line creates tremendous opportunities to impact the marketplace. Having such a positive evaluation by the Wal-Mart Innovation Network program certainly goes along way towards validating this claim," said Square Shooter President Michael West.
