More than 40 years ago, our founder Sam Walton, understood people needed to save
money so they could live better. Today, this mission is more important than ever to
our customers and members around the world. We work hard every day in all our
markets to deliver on this promise. We operate with the same level of integrity and
respect that Mr. Sam put in place. It is because of these values and culture that
Wal-Mart continues – now more than ever – to make a difference in the lives of our
customers, members and associates.

"My Dad created Wal-Mart to help
people save money so they can have
a better life. This mission remains as
relevant now as it was in 1962."

Rob Walton, Chairman of the Board
