Wal-Mart is one of the most successful superstores in America. They sell everything from groceries and clothing to toys and car parts. Wal-Mart has literally become a one-stop shop for anything a family could want. The thing that sets them apart is their "Always Low Prices." Wal-Mart's supply chain is impressive.
