Are there different owners of each Wal-Mart?

Well, Im not sure but i'll say yes. It depends where the Wal-marts are located . If you are talking about California Wal-Marts, maybe there are different owners but if you are talking about different places, well im not sure!!

Certain companies such as Wal-Mart have a mix of physical store ownership. Some stores are corporately owned while others are given franchise licensing for local ownership. Not all franchise ownerships may be local however. They can be investors and/or developers from elsewhere capitalizing in a geographic region.
