| Wal-Mart has a footprint in every corner of America and stores in nine foreign countries. This chart lists the number and location of Wal-Mart stores (as of Jan. 31, 2004) and includes their traditional discount stores; Superstores, the 200,000 square-foot stores featuring general merchandise, groceries and other services; Sam's Clubs, their warehouse stores; and Neighborhood Market grocery stores. The only question remaining for Wal-Mart is: How big can it possibly grow? Wal-Mart CEO Lee Scott, told shareholders in June 2004, "There is definitely room for growth." He also announced plans to add approximately 300 new stores in the coming fiscal year, roughly 50 million square feet of retail space.
