Who Was Sam Walton? Paperback / softback

Illustrated by Ted Hammond

Part of the Who Was? series

Paperback / softback

Description

Sam Walton used the money he earned in the army, along with some financial help from his family, to open his first store.

Then he opened fourteen more. Then Sam had an even bigger idea. He wanted to build large stores in small towns and reduce the price of everything they stocked.

Although other businessmen and potential partners laughed at him, this entrepreneur with humble beginnings used his resourcefulness to create Walmart, which would become the largest company in the world.
