How many wal- marts are there nationwide?

Answer 1

none

this their report in 2006

"WAL-MART, the world's largest retailer, abruptly pulled out of Germany yesterday, leaving Britain's Asda as its only remaining European outpost.

In a humbling admission of defeat, Wal-Mart said it would sell its 85 German stores to the rival supermarket chain Metro and would book a pre-tax loss of about $1 billion (£536million) on the failed venture.

Wal-Mart, which entered the German market eight years ago, struggled against the might of the discount retailers already operating in Germany, including the no-frills Aldi and Lidl. In a sluggish economy, it found it hard to convince shoppers that it had something extra to offer.

The withdrawal is a further blow to Wal-Mart's overseas ambitions, an area of increasing importance as it seeks new sources of sales growth. Wal-Mart sold its 16 outlets in South Korea in May to exit that country. After the sale in Germany is completed, it will operate in 13 countries around the world, compared with the 29 countries in which its nearest rival, Carrefour, operates.

The giant American group now plans to invest more in the turnaround of Asda, which has struggled to compete with its larger rival Tesco in the past few years"
