History of Wal-Mart

Today at Wal-Mart, you can just about buy anything. From cloths to car tires, Wal-Mart makes shopping convenient and helps you save money. I am here to tell you a little about Wal-Mart and why you should shop at Wal-Mart and make it one of your stores.

I. First we need to know about some history of Wal-Mart

A. In 1962, the Company was founded by Sam Walton with the opening of first Wal-Mart in Rogers, Ark.

1. According to time.com Sam Walton is probably one of the smartest business men ever seen.

2. and the reason why for that is in 1966, when he had over 20 stores, he hired a computer guy from IBM to computerize his operations so he can grow at his own pace. And because of this, Wal-Mart became the icon it is today. And was known to be one of the first business to use a computer database. Wal-Mart also has the 2nd largest computer database, right below the pentagon’s

B. In 1971, Wal-Mart expanded and had over 30 stores in five states: Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, Missour


1. When you go into Wal-Mart and just want to buy one thing, you will end buying more items than what you plan to get because basically they have everything in there, and you think of things that you need to get

2. Almost every Item in Wal-Mart has been discounted, and if you shop there a lot, you can end up saving a good sum of money. For example of a really big savings, your looking for a digital camera you want to buy for your significant other, you start comparing prices at Wal-Mart and Best Buy. Best buy sells the camera you want to buy for $399.99 and Wal-Mart sells the same camera for $40 dollars less!! I think you can get the picture.

D. About four years later, in 1995, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. hade over 1,995 Wal-Mart stores, 239 Supercenters, 433 SAM'S CLUBS and 276 International stores with sales at $93.6 billion and over 675,000 associates.

Wal-Mart is a great store to just tottle around in, you can brose through their enormous variety of items, play video games, rent
