The Wal-Mart Story
"We're all working together; that's the secret. And we'll lower the cost of living for everyone, not just in America, but we'll give the world an opportunity to see what it's like to save and have a better lifestyle, a better life for all. We're proud of what we've accomplished; we've just begun."
- Sam Walton (1918-1992)
Sam Walton's dream was simple: Give people high value, low prices and a warm welcome. That dream was realized in 1962 with the opening of the first Wal-Mart.
Today, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., employs more than 1.2 million associates worldwide. The company has more than 3,000 stores and offices across the United States and more than 1,000 stores internationally. It has also expanded online with Walmart.com, which is dedicated to bringing Sam Walton's dream to the Internet.
If you ask customers why they return to Wal-Mart again and again, chances are they'll say it's because of more than just the great prices and appealing selection. It's also because of the people, starting with the friendly greeters at the front of every store. Prompt, friendly service is a serious matter at Wal-Mart.
This commitment to people means that we also take seriously our responsibilities as a corporate neighbor. Local Wal-Mart stores have made a difference in their communities by:
• Underwriting college scholarships for high school seniors.
• Raising funds for local children's hospitals via the Children's Miracle Network Telethon.
• Educating the public about recycling and other environmental concerns via a "Green Coordinator," a specially trained associate who coordinates efforts to make each store environmentally responsible.
• Sponsoring a Community Matching Grant program, which involves fund-raising efforts by a nonprofit organization with the participation of Wal-Mart associates.
A lot has changed since the first Wal-Mart opened, but we continue every day to bring you the highest value at the lowest prices. And you'll always be greeted with a warm welcome, whether you walk through the door of your local Wal-Mart store or turn on your computer to visit us at Walmart.com.
Wal-Mart International Operations
Wal-Mart became an international company in 1991 when a SAM'S CLUB opened near Mexico City. Just two years later, the Wal-Mart International Division was created to oversee growing opportunities worldwide. Today, customers at more than 1,300 units in nine countries prove that Wal-Mart's Every Day Low Price promise is a message clearly understood in any language. The division currently operates stores and clubs employing more than 300,000 associates in the following countries: Argentina Brazil Canada China Germany Japan Korea Mexico Puerto Rico United Kingdom Development opportunities. Wal-Mart has experienced success internationally because of its ability to transport the company's unique culture and effective retailing concepts to each new country. Associates get involved in the local communities and adapt to local cultures. They respond to customer needs, merchandise preferences and local suppliers. By serving each hometown in its own unique way, Wal-Mart International has realized significant growth with potential for much greater development worldwide. Wal-Mart International has achieved global expansion through a combination of new store construction and acquisitions. This strategy has given the company excellent market penetration and positioned it for future development. The company sees its development throughout North America, Latin America, Asia and Europe as a good beginning with many promising areas for further expansion. Financial results. The division has posted impressive financial results. Fiscal 2003 sales reached $40.7 billion, a 15 percent increase over the previous year, and operating profit rose to $2.03 billion, an increase of 55.8 percent. Expansion plans.

Coca-Cola
Coca-Cola, the world’s most popular soft drink, was invented in 1886 by Dr. John Styth Pemberton in a back yard in Atlanta, Georgia.
His partner, Frank M. Robinson, named THE DARK BROWN LIQUID
Coca-cola because he thought the name would make effective advertising.
Coca-Cola was first sold for 5 cents a glass at Jacob’s Pharmacy a local drugstore.
After Pemberton’s death in 1888, his rights were purchased by Asa Candler who by 1891 had sold ownership of the formula for the sum of only $2,300.
By 1895, Coca-Cola was available in every US STATE.
Coca-Cola was originally distributed in syrup form and sold at soda fountain, in 1916 Coca-Cola first appeared in the world famous Coca-Cola contour bottle, still in use today.
In 1919 the Candler family sold Coca-Cola Company to Atlanta banker Ernest Woodruff and a group of businessmen for $ 25 M. in 1923 his son Robert Winship Woodruff was elected President of the company.
By the 1920’s Coca-Cola was available in Europe. In 1926 The Coca-Cola Export Corporation was set up..
And … in 1983, Coca-Cola was quite literally out of this world, when NASA took a specially designed Coca-Cola can into space.
In 1999, The Coca-Cola Company brought the SCHWEPPES soft drink brands, adding more choice to consumers in 160 countries ( excluding USA, The European Union Countries, but including Britain, Ireland & Greece and Norway.
Coca-Cola is now enjoyed in nearly 200 countries around the world. It is the most recognized trademark in the world and the second most widely understood phrase after OK!
Coca-Cola – the world’s favorite soft drink!

Today, the FBI is part of a vast national and international campaign dedicated to defeating terrorism. Working hand-in-hand with partners in law enforcement, intelligence, the military, and diplomatic circles, our job is to neutralize terrorist cells and operatives here in the U.S. and to help dismantle terrorist networks worldwide.
The FBI is uniquely situated to achieve this counter-terrorism mission. We have both domestic intelligence and law enforcement capabilities. This gives the FBI a full range of options when we pursue investigations, enabling us not only to detect terrorist threats through surveillance, source development, and careful analysis, but to act against those threats through arrest and incarceration. At the same time, the FBI can mobilize quickly and comprehensively to prevent attacks -- thanks to a worldwide network of dedicated Special Agents and their long-standing relationship with federal, state, local, and international partners. The FBI also has nearly a century of experience of working within the boundaries of the Constitution, protecting civil liberties.
The FBI, in conjunction with its law enforcement and intelligence community partners, is making a difference. Since September 11, 2001, more than 3,000 Al-Qa'ida leaders and foot soldiers have been taken into custody around the globe; nearly 200 suspected terrorist associates have been charged with crimes in the U.S.; and as many as a hundred terrorist attacks or plots have been broken up worldwide. The FBI is committed to preventing acts of terror and to protecting the security of the American people.
