Retailers Make Top Company by Revenue in Four States
UNITED STATES - As the buy-side continues to compete in a compacted market, some key retailers are making the top of the list in four states as the largest bringers of revenue.
To cultivate the list, Business Insider looked to the highest-ranked companies headquartered in their respective states from Fortune’s 1,000 List for 2015.
The four retailers, Walmart, Albertsons, Costco, and Kroger, each make number one in their headquartered states based on revenue, amongst other familiar corporate giants like Nike, CVS, and FedEx.
As for the regions in which these grocery sellers are making their hometowns proud:
- Walmart - Arkansas
- Kroger - Ohio
- Idaho - Albertsons
- Washington - Costco Wholesale
The first two might come as little surprise, as Kroger and Walmart both tied recently as top companies for Kantar Retail’s 2016 US PoweRanking® survey, which evaluates best-in-class among retailers when it comes to distinguishing themselves among key areas and manufacturer-retailer business relationships.
Walmart, too, has recently implemented further focus on fresh, with a recent announcement of intentions to double down its commitment to local produce and a new food safety technology.
As all these names continue to plan for strategic growth in fresh and beyond, what will we see as we make our way into 2017?
