                                  PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

          (a)  General Development of Business

               Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries 
hereinafter referred to as the "Company") has become America's largest 
retailer and during the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995, had net sales 
of $82,494,000,000.  The Company serves customers domestically and in 
Puerto Rico primarily through the operation of Wal-Mart stores (discount 
department stores), Sam's Clubs (warehouse membership clubs), and Wal-Mart 
Supercenters (a combination full-line supermarket and discount department 
store).  As of January 31, 1995, the Company operated 1,990 Wal-Mart 
stores, 428 Sam's Clubs, and 143 Wal-Mart Supercenters.  A table 
summarizing information concerning Wal-Mart stores, Sam's Clubs, Wal-Mart 
Supercenters, and other stores operated since January 31, 1990 is set forth 
in Schedule A to Item I found on page 9 of this annual report.

               In fiscal 1992, the Company entered into a joint venture, in 
which it has 50% interest, with CIFRA, Mexico's largest retailer, to 
develop and expand retailing services in Mexico.  At January 31, 1995, the 
joint venture operated 22 warehouse clubs, 23 discount stores, four 
combination stores, three supermarkets, four specialty department stores, 
29 restaurants, and 11 Wal-Mart Supercenters.  

               In March 1994, the Company completed the acquisition of 122 
Woolco department stores located in Canada from Woolworth Canada, Inc., a 
subsidiary of Woolworth Corporation.  The acquisition included all 
inventory, leasehold interests and other assets at each location.  At 
January 31, 1995, the Company operated 123 Canadian Wal-Mart stores.

               In fiscal 1995, the Company entered into a joint venture in 
which it has a 50% interest with Ek Chor Distribution System Co., Ltd., 
a subsidiary of C.P. Pokphand Co. Ltd. of the Charoen Pokphand Group, to 
develop and operate warehouse clubs and Supercenters in Hong Kong and the 
People's Republic of China.  At January 31, 1995, the joint venture operated 
three warehouse clubs in Hong Kong.

               In fiscal 1995, the Company entered into a joint venture 
in which it has a 60% interest with Lojas Americanas, a leading retailer 
in Brazil, to develop and operate Supercenters and warehouse clubs in 
Brazil.  Also during fiscal 1995, the Company announced plans to operate 
wholly-owned Supercenters and warehouse clubs in Argentina.  At January 
31, 1995 there were no operations in Argentina or Brazil.   The entry 
into these markets will not have a significant impact on the Company's 
operations or financial position in fiscal 1996.

               
          (b)  Financial Information About Industry Segments

               Sales of merchandise through stores which include Wal-Mart 
stores, Sam's Clubs, and Wal-Mart Supercenters, is the only significant 
industry segment of which the Company is a part.  Reference is made to the 
financial information incorporated by reference in this report for the 
financial results of the Company's operations.


          (c)  Narrative Description of Business

          The Company, a Delaware corporation, has its principal offices in 
Bentonville, Arkansas.  Although the Company was incorporated in October 
1969, the businesses conducted by its predecessors began in 1945 when Sam 
M. Walton opened a franchise Ben Franklin variety store in Newport, 
Arkansas.  In 1946, his brother, James L. Walton, opened a similar store in 
Versailles, Missouri.  Until 1962, the Company's business was devoted 
entirely to the operation of variety stores.  In that year, the first 
Wal-Mart Discount City (referred to herein as "Wal-Mart store") was opened.  
In fiscal 1984, the Company opened its first three Sam's Clubs, and in 
fiscal 1989, its first Wal-Mart Supercenter.  Through the years, the 
Company has made certain strategic acquisitions that have supported the 
growth of the Wal-Mart stores, clubs and Supercenters, such as the 
acquisition of ten full service and four specialty distribution centers 
through the purchase of McLane Company, Inc., which sells and distributes 
merchandise to the convenience store industry and a variety of other 
retailers, the acquisition of selected assets of Pace Membership Warehouse, 
Inc., and the acquisition of selected assets related to 122 Woolco stores 
in Canada from Woolworth Canada, Inc., a subsidiary of Woolworth 
Corporation.


          General.  The Company operates Wal-Mart stores in 49 states and 
Puerto Rico.  The average size of a Wal-Mart store is approximately 87,600 
square feet, and store sizes generally range between 30,000 and 150,000 
square feet of building area.  The Company operates Wal-Mart Supercenter 
stores in 19 states and the average size of a Supercenter store is 181,000 
square feet.

          The Company operates Sam's Clubs in 48 states and Puerto Rico.  
The average size of a Sam's Club is approximately 121,000 square feet, and 
club sizes generally range between 90,000 and 150,000 square feet of 
building area.  

          During the last fiscal year, no single location accounted for as 
much as 1% of sales or net income.


          Merchandise.  Wal-Mart stores are generally organized with 40 
departments and offer a wide variety of merchandise, including apparel for 
women, girls, men, boys, and infants.  Each store also carries curtains, 
fabrics and notions, shoes, housewares, hardware, electronics, home 
furnishings, small appliances, automotive accessories, garden equipment and 
supplies, sporting goods, toys, cameras and supplies, health and beauty 
aids, pharmaceuticals, and jewelry.

          Nationally advertised merchandise accounts for a majority of 
sales of the stores.  The Company markets lines of merchandise under the 
store brands "Sam's American Choice", "Great Value", "House Beautiful", 
"Sports Afield", "Ol' Roy", "Equate", "Popular Mechanics", and "Better 
Homes & Gardens".  

          During the fiscal year ended January 31, 1995, domestic sales of 
general merchandise at Wal-Mart stores (which are subject to seasonal 
variance), including licensed departments, by product category were as 
follows:

                                                  PERCENTAGE
          CATEGORY                                 OF SALES

                                                    100%
                                                        

          Sales in pharmaceuticals are a combination of owned and licensed 
departments.  While these percentages include sales of licensed 
departments, the Company records as other income only rentals received from 
such departments.

          Sam's offers bulk displays of name brand hardgood merchandise, 
some softgoods, and institutional size grocery items.  Each Sam's also 
carries jewelry, sporting goods, toys, tires, stationery, and books.  
Most clubs have fresh food departments which include bakery, meat, and 
produce. 

          McLane offers a wide variety of grocery and non-grocery products, 
including perishable and non-perishable items.  The non-grocery products 
consist primarily of tobacco products, hardgood merchandise, health and 
beauty aids, toys, and stationery.  McLane is a wholesale distributor that 
sells its merchandise to a variety of retailers, including the Company's 
Wal-Mart stores, Supercenters, and Sam's Clubs.

          Operations.  Except for extended hours during certain holiday 
seasons, the majority of the Wal-Mart stores are open from 9:00 a.m. to 
9:00 p.m. six (6) days a week, and from 12:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. on Sundays, 
with the remainder of the stores being closed on Sunday.  Some Wal-Mart 
stores and most of the Supercenter stores are currently open 24 hours each 
day.  Wal-Mart stores maintain uniform prices, except where lower prices 
are necessary to meet local competition.  Sales are primarily on a 
self-service, cash-and-carry basis with the objective of maximizing sales 
volume and inventory turnover while minimizing expenses.  Bank credit card 
programs, operated without recourse to the Company, are available in all 
stores.  Wal-Mart stores and Supercenters maintain a "satisfaction 
guaranteed" program to promote customer goodwill and acceptance.

          Sam's clubs are membership only, cash-and-carry operations.  
However, a financial service credit card program (Discover Card) is 
available in all clubs and the "Sam's Direct" commercial finance program is 
available to qualifying business members.  Club members include businesses 
and those individuals who are members of certain qualifying organizations, 
such as government and state employees and credit union members.  Both 
business and individual members have an annual membership fee of $25 for 
the primary membership card.   

          Operating hours vary among Sam's clubs, but generally, they are 
open Monday through Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.  Most Sam's are 
open weekend hours of 9:30 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. on Saturday and 12:00 noon to 
6:00 p.m. on Sunday.  Sam's, which offers a limited number of items, 
attempts to maximize sales volume and inventory turnover and to minimize 
expenses.


          Distribution.  During the 1995 fiscal year, approximately 84% of 
the Wal-Mart stores' and Supercenters' purchases were shipped from 
Wal-Mart's 30 distribution centers, six located in Arkansas; four in Texas; 
two in California, Indiana, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina; and one each 
in Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Iowa, Mississippi, New 
York, Ohio, Utah, Virginia, and Wisconsin.  The balance was shipped 
directly to the stores from suppliers.  Each of the distribution centers is 
designed to serve the distribution needs of approximately 150 stores.  The 
average size of these distribution centers is approximately 1,000,000 
square feet.  Sam's Clubs receive the majority of their merchandise via 
direct shipments from suppliers, rather than from the Company's 
distribution centers.

          The McLane distribution centers buy, sell, and distribute 
merchandise primarily to the convenience store industry, and they also 
service Wal-Mart stores, Supercenters and Sam's Clubs.  The McLane Company 
has 20 distribution centers with three located in Texas, two located in 
Arizona, California, Utah, and Virginia, and one each in Colorado, Florida, 
Georgia, Illinois, Mississippi, Missouri, New York, Washington, and Mexico.  


          Merchandising.  Substantially all purchasing and merchandising 
for all stores is controlled from the home offices of the Company through 
centralized buying and planning practices.  During the fiscal year 1995, no 
single supplier to the stores accounted for more than 3.7% of the Company's 
purchases.                                       


          Store Management.  Every retail outlet is managed by a store 
manager or club general manager and one or more assistant store or club 
managers.  The Company maintains training programs for managers, assistant 
managers and department managers.  The Company is committed to an ongoing 
training program in an effort to assure well trained future store 
management.


          Expansion Plans.  In fiscal 1996, the Company plans to open 90 to 
100 new Wal-Mart stores, nine new Sam's Clubs, and 12 new Wal-Mart 
Supercenters.  The Company plans to expand or relocate approximately 70 
older Wal-Mart stores and four Sam's Clubs along with the conversion of 
approximately 80 to 85 older Wal-Mart stores into Wal-Mart Supercenters.  
Also planned is the construction of three full-line distribution centers.  
The Company plans to continue to develop its interests in Hong Kong, China, 
Argentina, Brazil, and Canada with the planned addition of approximately 20 
to 25 new units.  The Company expenses its start-up costs for each new 
unit during the first full month of operation.  Delays may be experienced 
in projected opening dates because of construction problems, weather and 
other reasons.  There can be no assurance that planned expansion will 
proceed as scheduled.


          Seasonal Aspects of Operations.  The Company's business is 
seasonal to a certain extent.  Generally, the highest volume of sales and 
net income occurs in the fourth fiscal quarter and the lowest volume occurs 
during the first fiscal quarter.


          Competition.  The Company's Wal-Mart stores compete with other 
discount, department, drug, variety, and specialty stores, many of which 
are national chains.  Sam's Clubs compete with wholesale clubs, as well as 
with discount retailers, wholesale grocers, and general merchandise 
wholesalers and distributors.  The Wal-Mart Supercenters compete with other 
supercenter type stores, discount stores, supermarkets, and specialty 
stores, many of which are national or regional chains.  The Company also 
competes for new store sites.  As of January 31, 1995, based on net sales, 
the Company ranked first among all retail department store chains and among 
all discount department store chains.

          The Company's competitive position within the industry is largely 
determined by the Company's ability to offer value and service to its 
customers.  The Company has many programs designed to meet the competitive 
needs of its industry.  These include the "Everyday Low Price", "Item 
Merchandising", "Store-within-a-Store", "Our Business is Saving Your 
Business Money", and "Buy America" programs.  Although the Company believes 
it has had a major influence in most of the retail markets in which its 
stores are located, there is no assurance that this will continue.


          Employees (Associates).  As of January 31, 1995, the Company had 
approximately 622,000 full- and part-time associates, an increase of 
approximately 94,000 associates for the year.  Part-time associates are 
primarily sales personnel.  Associates who are in supervisory and 
management positions are compensated on a salaried basis; store managers 
and club general managers receive additional compensation based on their 
unit's profits.  All other store associates are compensated on an hourly 
basis with the opportunity of receiving additional incentive bonuses based 
upon the Company's productivity and profitability.

          The Company maintains profit sharing plans under which most full- 
and many part-time associates become participants following one year of 
employment with the Company.  Annual contributions, based on the 
profitability of the Company, are made at the sole discretion of the 
Company.  For the fiscal years ended January 31, 1990 through 1995, 
contributions of approximately $90,000,000, $98,000,000, $130,000,000, 
$166,000,000, $166,000,000, and $175,000,000, respectively, have been made.

          The Company also offers an associate stock ownership plan that 
provides for the voluntary purchase of the Company's common stock, with a 
15% match by the Company on up to $1,800 of annual stock purchases.  The 
Company also has stock option plans that provide certain management 
associates an opportunity to share in the long-term success of the Company.  
At January 31, 1995, there were approximately 5,000 management associates 
who had been granted stock options by the Company.
