Walmart U.S. Strategies and Shoppers gives industry participants needed insight into the nation’s largest retailer’s strengths, weaknesses, and related initiatives (inclusive of Walmart U.S. and Sam’s Club) from four contextual angles:
  • the broader retail market,
  • the financial products and services market
  • the groceries and consumables market,
  • and the pet products and supplies market.
From each angle, the report focuses on omnichannel (online, in-store, and aggregated) consumer purchasing trends over time and includes analysis of pertinent strategies (such as click-and-collect, the click-and-collect connection to in-store purchasing, dynamic pricing, and subscription services).
