Despite rising competition, Walmart remains the largest retailer in the world. By a wide margin, more people purchase groceries in-store/online from Walmart than other leading food retailers and supermarkets, although Amazon is the online grocery purchasing leader, according to market research firm Packaged Facts in U.S Grocery Market Focus: The Walmart Food Shopper, a new report that’s first in a four-part series on Walmart spanning grocery & consumables, pets products, and financial services.
