Revenue Trends Overview
The annual revenue figures across all categories demonstrate a consistent upward trajectory over the six-year period under review, indicating steady growth in sales volumes and value.
Food and Sundries
This segment exhibits a robust increase in sales, rising from approximately $59.7 billion in 2019 to around $101.5 billion in 2024. The growth appears steady year-on-year, with an especially notable increase between 2022 and 2023, suggesting strengthening demand or successful expansion within this category.
Non-foods
Sales of non-food items also increased substantially, growing from $41.2 billion in 2019 to nearly $64.0 billion in 2024. Although the increase is consistent, the growth rate appears somewhat more moderate compared to the food and sundries segment, particularly between 2022 and 2023 where a slight dip was observed before recovering by 2024.
Fresh Foods
This category has shown continuous positive growth, expanding from $19.9 billion in 2019 to $34.2 billion in 2024. Growth is steady each year, indicating sustained demand or effective product sourcing strategies in fresh food offerings.
Warehouse Ancillary and Other Businesses
There is a pronounced growth pattern in this segment, with revenues climbing from $28.6 billion in 2019 to $50.0 billion in 2024. The most significant increase occurred between 2021 and 2022, where revenues jumped markedly, implying possible diversification or expansion of ancillary services during that period.
Net Sales
Total net sales demonstrate a strong positive growth trend, advancing from $149.4 billion in 2019 to approximately $249.6 billion in 2024. The year-over-year increases are consistent, reflecting the aggregate growth across all segments and reinforcing the overall sales expansion and market penetration.
