Sam’s Club

Overview

Sam’s Club is the membership-only warehouse club owned by Walmart Inc. Walmart’s annual report for fiscal 2026 states that Sam’s Club U.S. operated 601 clubs in 44 states and Puerto Rico, plus samsclub.com and a mobile app, and had net sales of US$93.0 billion, 13% of Walmart’s consolidated net sales^[3].

Two membership tiers are offered: Club at US$50 a year and Plus at US$110 a year. Every membership includes a household card, and add-on memberships cost US$45 each, which makes it possible to give cards to several employees of a small business^[3]. Club members get free curbside pickup, while Plus members get free delivery from the club, free shipping on orders of US$50 or more, extra offers and early shopping hours^[3].

The assortment includes Walmart’s Member’s Mark private label, which Walmart says it continues to expand^[3]. Like Costco, Sam’s Club suits businesses buying consumables, food and supplies in bulk rather than retailers seeking distinctive stock for resale. Its website blocks some automated access, so current in-club business programmes were not checked for this list.
