When Wal-Mart Comes to Town
Inc. Magazine's article about how a small Maine town reacted to Wal-Mart's opening
three stores in the area.

Eight years after Wal-Mart's entry into Iowa, department stores -- led, obviously, by Wal-Mart -- had added $334 million worth of revenues, amounting to a 20.2% gain in market share, while clothing, drug, jewelry, auto-parts, hardware, variety, and grocery stores had all lost market share ranging from 2% to 44%

That involves entering the $362-billion-a-year grocery market, which Wal-Mart has begun addressing through its Supercenters, combination discount stores and supermarkets

(The first of those opened in 1988, and today there are 35.) Also, in 1991 Wal-Mart bought McLane's, a grocery distributor with $3.7 billion in sales

In 1992 it bought the Phillips Cos., an Arkansas-based grocery chain with $290 million in sales

We were leaving the grocery store recently -- the Wal-Mart, and remind me to tell you bellyaching Wal-Mart-is-going-to-ruin-the-world upper-income types about the sweet old Mom-and-Pop grocer near my house when I was a kid, the ones who charged me five dollars for a gallon of milk because they knew we just had the one car and that my mother was at work, and that my baby brother needed milk, and how these are the people I think of when I hear about Wal-Mart driving small businesses into bankruptcy, which is why I always mutter 'good' under my breath when I hear that, because Wal-Mart is like a tax cut for poor people, but all that is another story, and not the one I'm telling here
