Each week, over 275 million customers and members visit more than 11,300 stores under 58 banners in 27 countries and eCommerce websites and apps.

From February 2009 to February 2014, McMillon served as president and CEO of Walmart International, a fast-growing segment of Walmart’s overall operations, with over 6,100 stores and more than 700,000 associates in 26 countries outside the United States at that time.

He went on to serve in successful senior leadership roles in all of Walmart’s business segments. He remains a merchant at heart and understands where customers around the world are heading next.
