Retailing To-do: | edit | history | watch | purge  Here are some tasks you can do: Requests: WikiProject Retailing userbox Copyedit: Target Corporation, Wal-Mart - to be used as an examples for ideal page structure Cleanup: Listings of store locations Expand: Store manager, List of articles on project page, image gallery on project page, Hypermarket (history section), Category killer - This is very US/Canada centric - Ikea exists elsewhere, too. Stubs: Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market, Archer Farms, ClearRx Other: Department store - discriminate between itself and Discount store. Category killer - If a Category Killer dominates its area, why are there many stores listed per category? There should be clear criteria for when a store is included, otherwise this just becomes an advertising page.

May I know what is the difference between a supermarket and Neighborhood Market?

In the US, a supermarket is a general term for a grocery store. A supermarket typically retials more than just food, like kitchen supplies, cards, and maybe a pharmacy. A Neighborhood Market is walmart's name for a supermarket. The name evokes what many people like about neighborhoods- small, local, familiar place where you can buy from local vendors. Obviously, the reality is different. 40,000 square feet is still very large and there is little about the retail goods that is local.
