Company OverviewSAM'S CLUB is the nation's leading members-only warehouse club with more than 46 million members. The first SAM'S CLUB opened its doors in Midwest City, Oklahoma in 1983. That same year, two additional clubs opened in Kansas City, Missouri and Dallas, Texas. From those initial three, SAM'S CLUB has expanded into a nationwide chain of more than 500 clubs across the country.SAM'S CLUB offers exceptional value on brand name merchandise at "members only" prices for both business and personal use. SAM'S CLUB operates by selling merchandise at very low profit margins, which are passed along to the members in the form of low, warehouse prices. Profits are primarily derived from membership sales. SAM'S CLUB is a place where business operators and their families, as well as informed deal seekers, can find consistent savings on more that 4,000 items; including appliances and electronics, office supplies, fresh food, clothing, optical and pharmacy services, home furnishings, books, batteries, and auto supplies. In addition to its brand name, quality merchandise, SAM'S CLUB offers its members a variety of big deals in the form of additional services. These include a travel club, an auto purchase program, discount credit card processing for retail members, software training, a mail-order pharmacy, Internet access and long-distance services. A typical SAM'S CLUB stands between 110,000 and 130,000 square feet. To keep its merchandise extremely low-priced, all the Clubs look like working warehouses. Each Club's no frills appearance features cement floors with merchandise often displayed on shipping pallets. Steel racks from floor to ceiling form the structure of most merchandise displays which are generally divided into hard lines (electronics and automotive), center section (office supplies and apparel), freezer/cooler (frozen foods) and grocery (produce, fresh meats and bakery). SAM'S CLUB, with annual sales of more than $29 billion, is the largest warehouse club in the United States with more than 500 clubs and more than 46 million members.
