There's a flip side to that however. As good as WalMart is in regards to customer service/relations they run roughshod over their suppliers. The suppliers are caught in a bind because of WalMart's market share.
Are you kidding? If suppliers feel abused by Wal-Mart, they don't have to sell to them. (Yeah, right!)
What supplier is caught in a bind because of Wal-Mart? If anything, Wal-Mart makes suppliers more efficient by forcing them to squeeze costs out of their structure to meet WM's price demands.
It's all good for consumers, which is Wal-Mart's bottom line.
