Walmart CFO talks private brand, delivery growth
As Walmart looks to broaden its grocery assortment, private brands are playing a major role, the company's CFO said at a recent conference. In particular, the company is seeing success with its Bettergoods grocery line, which launched last year and focuses on trendy and affordable items. "Bettergoods has been a big success story for us," John David Rainey, executive vice president and CFO of Walmart, said at the Oppenheimer Consumer Growth & E-Commerce Conference early this month, according to a Seeking Alpha transcript. The brand features approximately 400 items and has racked up almost $500 million in sales, Rainey said, noting that roughly 70% of that brand's items are priced below $5. "What's exciting to me about this is 40% of the customers that buy a Bettergood[s] item are coming back as repeat customers. … I think it really speaks to the quality of the overall assortment," Rainey said. Along with improving its stance on fresh foods, Walmart is also focused on convenience for its customers, he added. Pharmacy delivery, which is available at the majority of the retailer's stores, is promoting "sticky behavior" among customers, Rainey said. Last fall, Walmart launched same-day pharmacy delivery nationwide. "[With] pharmacy delivery, we can easily provide the opportunity for customers to add in additional food items or add in general merchandise or maybe there's other items within the pharmacy that they want to have delivered … and there's no company that can do all three of those: [general merchandise], food and pharmacy," he said. E-commerce, especially delivery, is another key growth driver for the company. Reliable and fast delivery is the "single most compelling part of the value proposition" for its Walmart+ membership program, Rainey said. Walmart is encouraged by consumers' willingness to pay for speedier delivery. Walmart has almost doubled the number of deliveries done in under three hours from the first quarter of last year, Rainey said. In recent weeks, express delivery has accounted for as much as 40% of delivery orders, he said, noting that this quick delivery option accounted for one-third of delivery orders in the company's most recent quarter. "We continue to see that customers are willing to actually pay for that expedited delivery," he said. Copyright 2025 Industry Dive. All rights reserved.

How Can A Creditor Get Information From The Debtor's LLC? Let Me Count The Ways
A subpoena orders one to appear and testify Let's say that a judgment creditor holds a charging order against a debtor's interest in an LLC. The charging order does two things: first, it creates a lien on the debtor's economic interest in the LLC and, second, it requires that any distributions due to the debtor be paid to the creditor instead. All well and good, but how does the creditor know if distributions are being made or what else is going on in the LLC? As a mere lienholder, the creditor has no right to obtain information directly from the LLC. Nor does the order to pay over distributions to the creditor does create any information rights against the LLC. So no joy there. As an aside, even if the creditor forecloses upon the charging order lien, the purchaser of the debtor's interest at the judicial sale (who is usually the creditor) will become no more than an involuntary assignee of the interest and that will not entitle the purchaser to information from the LLC either ― although that purchaser will probably receive a form K-1 each year. This is the commonly-marketed asset protection viewpoint anyway. But does this mean that the creditor is stuck with no means of getting information from the LLC? This question is answered, at least in Ohio, in the opinion issued in HDDA, LLC v. Vasani, 2025 Ohio 2000, 2025 WL 1587261 (Ohio App., June 5, 2025), which you can read for yourself here. The facts of the HDDA case are pretty simple. The creditor held a judgment against two individual defendants, and the individual defendants held interests in nine different LLCs. The creditor served subpoenas upon the LLC which sought financial information about the defendants. The defendants and the nine LLCs filed a motion to quash the subpoenas and also moved for the imposition of a protective order to block the creditor from obtaining that information. For its part, the creditor filed a motion to compel the nine LLCs to comply with the subpoenas. The lower court judge rejected the defendants' and LLCs' motions, but granted the creditor's motion to compel the nine LLCs to comply with the subpoenas. From that ruling, the defendants and the LLCs appealed to the Ohio Court of Appeals. The Court of Appeals affirmed the rulings. Since Ohio law in post-judgment enforcement proceedings allows the issuance of subpoenas to third-parties to uncover the financial information of debtors, it was proper for the subpoenas to be issued to the nine LLCs since they might have information about the assets of the debtors. Plus, there was apparently some evidence presented to the trial court that the debtors and the nine LLCs had commingled funds and assets. This was all fair game for the creditor's subpoenas. The debtors claimed that they were "only members" of the LLCs and that the creditor's sole and only recourse was to take a charging order against the debtors' interests in the LLCs, which would give the creditor rights against the debtors' interests but would not give the creditor any informational rights against the LLCs. To this point, the Court of Appeals noted that the third-party subpoenas were simply a different mechanism to obtain discovery against the LLCs and the subpoenas were not prohibited by the Ohio LLC law. In the end, the Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court's issuance of the motion to compel, as well as its rejection of the motions to quash and for a protective order. ANALYSIS What this case basically illustrates is the old adage that there are "many ways to skin a cat". Creditors have many post-judgment enforcement tools available to them. They are not limited to just one tool where debtors hold LLC interests, the "exclusive remedy" language notwithstanding. Think of it as a creditor wanting to get into a city and there are several roads to get into that city. While the charging order road might be blocked, the third-party subpoena road is still wide open. Where this may get weird is that some states categorize their post-judgment discovery provisions as a "remedy" and in those states there might be a question as to whether that means those provisions are then blocked by the "exclusive remedy" language of the local LLC law, but that is for another day. I could see the arguments both ways. On one hand, the legislature knew what the creditor's remedies were when it adopted the "exclusive remedy" language and so it should be binding on all post-judgment remedies including discovery. On the other hand, post-judgment discovery to third-parties is commonplace and does not cause the sort of interference with the business that the "exclusive remedy" language was meant to address, so it really doesn't make any sense to apply it in that context (similar to how courts get around the charging order statutes in the case of single-member LLCs). It is worth noting that there is yet another way for a creditor to obtain information about an LLCs in which a debtor has an interest, which is to compel the debtor to obtain that information from the LLC and provide it to the creditor in a post-judgment debtor examination. As mentioned, when a creditor obtains a charging order against a debtor, the creditor only gets a lien and an order to pay. The debtor, however, remains a member in the LLC and (unless the LLC's operating agreement provides differently, and few of them do) is entitled to review all the books and records of the LLC. Thus, the creditor could compel the debtor to obtain that information and turn it over. A slightly narrower road which provides a glimpse into the LLC's activities is the K-1 that most LLCs issue to their members. In all but a rare few jurisdictions, these tax returns are discoverable by creditors and they usually contain a wealth of useful information about the LLC. Again, there are several roads available for a creditor to take, it is just a matter of the creditor following the road that is open and leads to the information sought by the debtor. In this case, the creditor seeks information of asset and fund commingling which, if proven, would allow the creditors to circumvent charging order exclusivity altogether and instead bring a motion to reverse-pierce the nine LLCs to get at their assets directly, instead of waiting around for distributions that might never be made. That is proper too, if the facts ultimately support it. We thus see for the umpteenth time that charging order exclusivity really isn't that exclusive. But I've been saying that all along. Hat tip to Tom Rutledge of Stoll Keenon Ogden PLLC in Louisville for telling me of this opinion.

Walmart's Sam's Club and Costco make key pricing moves
Sam's Club and Costco have a unique rivalry, unlike most retailers, which have a key competitor that mostly sells the same stuff. Because both chains are membership-based, they're generally only competing for new members in locations where they both have clubs in the same geographic space. Even someone who strongly prefers Costco (COST) over Sam's Club probably won't drive more than a few miles if the Walmart brand happens to be a lot closer. Related: Iconic convenience store chain closing after long goodbye In reality, once Costco or Sam's Club capture a member, they're essentially competing with themselves. The goal of both chains is, of course, to hold onto members and maintain high renewal rates. If they can do that, their businesses succeed, because membership revenue is essentially pure profit. Don't miss the move: Subscribe to TheStreet's free daily newsletter Yes, Costco and Sam's Club want people to shop in their warehouses, but they mostly want that to entice the member to renew. All retail sales made by both chains are very low margin, and the two retail giants do everything they can to lower prices for members. It's a retention strategy that works, and now Sam's Club has made a move that may attract the attention of some diehard Costco fans. Image source:Consumers have become concerned about price because of the uncertainty around tariffs and the possibility of an escalating war with Iran. Those concerns have generally been good for Sam's Club and Costco, since in general, they have lower prices than other retailers and have been more willing to avoid passing on increases to members. Now, the retail giant has been very vocal about an effort to help members feel better about their finances, at least for a while. "This summer, we're giving our current and future members an extra reason to be part of the club," the chain shared on its website. More Food News: McDonald's brings back unexpected breakfast item after 6 yearsHershey creates new guilt-free candy that's a dream comboTaco Bell adds new beverages to hop on viral fast-food trend The chain said that it has been listening to its customers and wants to meet their needs. "So, starting today, we're locking the value on more than 1,000 summer favorites through July 22. From grilling gear and coolers to pool floats and fresh-cut fruit trays - members can count on consistent value for the season's must-haves. No surprises. Just confidence," the warehouse club shared. Holding prices may not seem that great, but it's a big promise at a time when costs are increasing. "And it doesn't stop there. On July 23, we roll right into our July Instant Savings Event, bringing even more deals on popular summer picks and back-to-school essentials," it added. Costco CEO Ron Vachris did make it clear that his chain has also been battling to keep prices down. "Our merchandising and operations team did a fantastic job in the quarter, delivering some strong financial results, while also maintaining our competitive price position despite a challenging macroeconomic backdrop," he said during the chain's third-quarter earnings call. The CEO explained how Costco is staying ahead of tariffs as well it can. "We're remaining agile as a situation with tariffs evolves, while also supporting the commitments we've made with our long-term suppliers. As an example of this, during the third quarter, we rerouted many goods sourced from countries with large tariff exposure to our non-U.S. markets," he shared. Related: Nike fumbles its biggest launch of the year The chain also took in added inventory. "In the U.S., we pulled forward some items that we had planned for the summer and sourced additional locally produced goods to reduce tariff impacts and ensure that we were in stock. Actions such as these are allowing us to continue to provide great values for our members, while also delivering value to our shareholders," he added. .
