History of Walmart
Walmart was founded by Samuel Moore Walton, who worked various jobs from a young age to support his family, including selling milk, magazine subscriptions, and even working as a waiter in exchange for meals while pursuing his studies.
When he was a sales apprentice at JC Penney, his boss told him that he didn’t have the necessary skills for retail, but years later, Walton would go on to found the world’s largest supermarket chain.
In 1962, Walton founded Walmart with the vision of bringing discount stores that existed in big cities to small towns, offering products at affordable prices. The success was so overwhelming that, within less than a decade, the company began trading on the New York Stock Exchange. By 1991, Walmart surpassed Kmart and Sears in sales, becoming the largest retailer in the United States.
How many Walmart stores are there in the United States?
Currently, the supermarket chain has over 4,500 stores in the United States. The state with the most Walmart locations is Texas, with a total of 514 stores, representing about 11% of the company’s stores in the country.
