Walmart CEO Has Advice for His Chain's Customers
Americans are not used to going to the store and seeing empty shelves in some sections. Most people shop for what they need that week knowing that if they forget something, it's easy enough to pop back into a store.
The coronavirus pandemic has changed that. Consumers may struggle to land online delivery slots and some may go to the store to stock up with plans to not return for weeks.
It's easy to see why people are tempted to hoard essential items. If you buy a month's worth of something, you don't have to go back to the store or worry about delivery. That type of thinking, however, can lead to shortages, and people not being able to get what they need, according to Walmart (NYSE: WMT) CEO Doug McMillon.
