Walmart is the world's largest public corporation by revenue, according to the 2008 Fortune Global 500. Founded by Sam Walton in 1962 Walmart is the motherload of all discount superstores. They have everything you need at discounted prices.
If you live by one or have ever been to one, it's quite massive. In the early days, the founder Sam Walton didn't really care for customers who came in once and bought $100 worth of things. He focused on repeat business. That is to say that he wanted people to keep coming back to check out the discounted prices even if they spent just a few dollars each time, here and there. They would ultimately spend more a lot more than the customers that came in spending a lot, but only came in a few times.These customers who made Walmart part of their daily/weekly/monthly routine would ultimately build the foundation for the Walmart behemoth we know today.
Walmart is also the largest grocery retailer in the United States, with an estimated 20% of the retail grocery and consumables business. It also owns and operates the North American company, Sam's Club
