I chose Walgreens, Kroger, and Walmart for my grocery stores visits. There are obvious differences in each store. The major different in each store are the pricing and the layout of each store.

More recently Walgreens plan to innovate and reinvent Walgreens was outlined by CEO Gregory Wasson at their 2014 Annual Shareholders Meeting. Named “plan to win” Walgreens, has decided to reposition itself as a health care company through convenience, pharmacy modernization and increased focus on customer care. The company has slowed the growth of new stores and instead they have remodeled their pharmacies, devoted more space to health care and introduced several new innovated features to include Walgreens Take Care Clinics (WTCC), a multipurpose room and a room for community-based health events (CBHE) in their stores. The WTCC allows customers to walk in and receive professional health care, the multipurpose room is where patients receive health screenings and immunizations and the CBHE room is where wellness events and biometric health fairs are held (EY, 2012). Dubbed the “Well Experience”, Walgreens has an increased focus on and invested in training so that employees are, “highly engaged in delivering extraordinary customer care with the right products and solutions in every community in America” (Walgreens, 2014).

The four elements of a contract are; the agreement, the consideration, contractual capacity and legal object. The first element of the agreement does exist because Sam made a verbal agreement to send the 1,000 units to the chain store. Based on this verbal agreement, the element does count toward a contract. The second element of the consideration would be deemed valid to on the basis that Sam and the chain store had both agreed on what Sam would be given in exchange for his units.
Records show due to Walmart is all around the place, gross domestic prices have gone up in an amount. Even though Walmart set up bad labor and gives bad opportunities to their employees, customers still thinks it is very convenient due to the low price.

The shopping carts are also a useful tool for customers to pick up their products, they also have small drive shopping carts for disables so they can even come to the store without any help. Nothing is better than Walmart in my opinion.

Walmart owns a chain of grocery stores, discount department stores and hypermarkets with about 11,500 retail stores over 28 countries. In 1998, Walmart entered Germany with the acquisition of Wertkauf and Interspar chain (Louisa 2006). Despite having the strongest economy in Europe and the third largest retail market in the world, Germany was not an ideal place for Walmart to achieve its ambition (Knorr and Andt 2003).
