Wal-Mart Stores (Wal-Mart) serves customers and members more than 200 million times per week at more than 7,900 retail units under 55 different banners in 15 countries. With fiscal year 2009 sales of $401 billion, Wal-Mart employs more than 2 million associates worldwide. Wal-Mart has been a major player in the pharmacy, health and beauty care industry for a long time, but it became an even more significant force recently as a broad slate of initiatives drove growth and positioned the company for continued expansion of its healthcare businesses. Walmart helped change the pharmacy landscape and national thinking about generics when it launched its $4 prescription program in 2006.
