Wal-Mart is a global, traditional retail chain supermarket. Locally in the United States, with the development of trade globalization, the market is gradually expanded to many cities in China. The annual turnover is a relatively large income.

Nowadays, in this environment where the Internet is integrated into people's lives, the traditional retail industry has entered a very difficult development situation. Under the strong impact of the electricity supplier industry, many small traditional retail enterprises have already collapsed, even the global Wal-Mart has also experienced economic tensions and has had to take measures to close stores to reduce losses.

Domestically oppressed by various pressures

The sluggish development of the domestic traditional retail industry is a general trend. In addition, Wal-Mart has also suffered from various pressures and blows in the country, and it has already shown its state of overstretch.

In areas such as Guangdong and Hunan, Wal-Mart has been mercilessly sold for its low price of 1 yuan by its backer Huarun because of its negative revenue for consecutive years.

With stores that are good at fresh produce, Wal-Mart has caused further damage, and the advantages and competitiveness of fresh foreign-owned products have been eliminated.

In an economically stressful situation, Wal-Mart wants to ensure that the company's performance is not a loss, in order to ensure the consumer's "everyday minimum price" commitment, and to start with the suppliers, and to minimize the cost of the purchase price. Powerful suppliers did not show concessions on price cuts, and Wal-Mart could not help it.

Recently, in a food testing operation in Fujian Province, many of the unqualified products involved were from Wal-Mart's shelf sales, adding a gray layer to the good image of Wal-Mart.

The development of the native United States shines

Faced with this situation, Wal-Mart said that the global development model does not clearly propose the concept of transition, but in fact, the development of the United States has begun to change together to continue to adapt to the new market.

In July and August, Wal-Mart built two large e-commerce logistics centers in Bethlehem, Pa., and Plainfield, Indiana. Later in September, it was revealed that Wal-Mart will continue to increase the construction of e-commerce logistics centers next year. There should be two new logistics centers for everyone to show.

The recent construction of a large-scale e-commerce logistics center was in full swing in Atlanta, Georgia. Once completed, it will cover an area of ​​12 million square feet, and at the same time be able to handle millions of products, greatly increasing The efficiency of the work.

The construction of e-commerce logistics centers in the United States has reached a level of madness. It also shows that Wal-Mart's e-commerce development in the United States is very good.

It seems that Wal-Mart still has certain experience in the development of e-commerce. If such a system is applied to the domestic market, there may be better development.
