Giants’ struggle for costumers

Wal-Mart is the largest retail company of America and the world. On the basis of the sales it is considered to be the planet's largest company. Wal-Mart has 8 thousand stores in 15 countries, and has more than 2 million employees. The company's 2008 annual turnover was 401 billion USD.
French Carrefour is the second in the rankings, with a 127 billion USD turnover. The group has 14 thousand stores in 36 countries.
