International

Saving people money so they can live better — worldwide

In 1991, Walmart became an international company when we opened a Sam's Club near Mexico City. Just two years later, Walmart International was created.

Today, Walmart International is a fast-growing part of Walmart's overall operations, with 3,859 stores and more than 680,000 associates in 15 markets outside the continental U.S.:

Thinking globally. Serving locally.

Our international stores offer working families the things they need at prices they can afford, and offer the customer service and convenience we’re famous for. In each of our international markets, we use our strength as a global company to meet the local needs of our customers, and provide help for their communities.

Saving money — good news in any language

We’ve created stores with different styles and formats to fit in with local customer needs, desires, and customs. More than 75 percent of our international stores operate under a different banner than Walmart. But, whether we’re Pali in Costa Rica, Todo Dia in Brazil, or Despensa Familiar in Central America, all of our stores share a common goal: Save people money, so they can live better.
