Sam's Club is a chain of membership-only retail warehouse clubs. Founded in 1983, it is owned and operated by Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., and is named after Wal-Mart founder Sam Walton. As of January 31, 2009, the Sam's Club chain operated in 48 of the 50 U.S. States, and, as of 2008, served more than 47 million U.S. members.
