Wal-Mart also owns Sam's club the big retail warehouse stores.
Yes, do you have a membership to Sam's?
No because most of the time I find Sam's brand in Walmart. So why pay the membership fee? Wamart has over 11,700 stores in 28 countries under 59 names, not just Sam's.
Wow, I didn't realize that. So are Wal-Mart stores called the same in other countries?
Yes but then other names too. I know in Canada they compete with Costco and hypermarket Real Canadian Superstore a lot.
Oh ok. I don't have a membership to Sam's either, do you still have to be a business owner?
No you don't.  They stop that a while ago. Walmart can be considered a hypermarket too. They are hypermarket is a superstore combining a supermarket and a department store.
