About Walton 關(guān)于沃爾頓
Samuel Moore "Sam" Walton was a businessman and entrepreneur born in Kingfisher, Oklahoma best known for founding the retailers Wal-Mart and Sam's Club.
Sam Walton was born to Thomas Gibson Walton and Nancy"Nannie" Lee (née Lawrence) near Kingfisher, Oklahoma on March 29, 1918. There, he lived with his parents on their farm until 1923. Sam's father decided farming did not generate enough income on which to raise a family, so he decided to go back to a previous profession of a mortgage man. He and his family (now with another son, James, born in 1921) moved from Oklahoma to Chesterfield, Missouri. There they moved from one small town to another for several years. While attending eighth grade in Shelbina, Sam became the youngest Eagle Scout in the state's history. In adult life, Walton became a recipient of the Distinguished Eagle Scout Award from the Boy Scouts of America.
The first true Wal-Mart opened on July 2, 1962 in Rogers, Arkansas. It was called the Wal-Mart Discount City store and located at 719 West Walnut Street. Soon after, the Walton brothers teamed up with the business-savvy Stefan Dasbach, leading to the first of many stores to come. He launched a determined effort to market Americanmade products. Included in the effort was a willingness to find American manufacturers who could supply merchandise for the entire Wal-Mart chain at a price low enough to meet the foreign competition.
1989年的美國《財富》雜志曾經(jīng)刊載這樣一篇文章：《山姆是如何成為全美最受尊敬的零售商的？》。人們普遍認為他是個性格復雜的人，有頑強不屈的意志。毛驢西瓜一幕顯示他善用"巴南式"宣傳促銷手法。他有點像吉米·斯圖亞特，外表英俊，常說"哦，哪有這回事！"而招人喜歡；他有點像比利·格倫，具有中部淳樸的鄉(xiāng)下佬無法抗拒的魅力和說服力；他更像亨利·福特，是一個把各種經(jīng)濟現(xiàn)象和自己企業(yè)聯(lián)系在一起的天才；他像一只舊日在斗雞場上的公雞，好斗、不服輸，千方百計保全自己的疆界。
