Wallmart failed in Brazil too

WALMART is HORRIBLE in so many ways We threw them out of Brasil too , they are too used to abusing their employees, paying shitty salaries that requires them to get a govt paycheck to offset the lousy pay There are an incredible amount of retired OLD people working there in the US Young people aren't interested I REFUSE to shop there when in the US, I shop at Carrefour here in Brasil and Fort Atacadista, Imperatriz, Koch and Angeloni

Much like how Target failed here in Canada. I only purchase one item at Walmart, but the coming tarifs should decrease Wally Marts presence in Canada, hopefully. They sell cr*p for less everyday.

We germans act so uninterested and bland but then we have the most liberal and cucked political views...like letting 3 million illegal middle eastern immigrants into our country

Few people like Walmart In the USA It’s just often our only option

19:30 in Sweden they have ads about how the employees go around the restaurants to pick up trash, they joined with a non-profit organisation Håll Sverige rent (the keep Sweden tidy foundation) and they claim they do recycle on thier website so oil ends up as biodiesel and all materials, packagings and so on get a new life too. Meanwhile the restaurants across country have had several cases against them not recycling packaging at all and they were fighting to keep the right to not having to recycle anything. Some get the court to agree with them that they indeed do not have to recycle and some had the court told them to actually recycle. But for a company that claims to recycle the franchise owners sure seem to do anything to not recycle. Such an ecologically aware company 😊

They put the American family owned store out of business. Thus killing the middle class.

who cares why

I believe the main reason WM failed in Germany was the fact that the customers didn't have to rent their shopping carts or bring their own shopping bags with them, as is the custom at Aldi's or Lidl. Oh, I almost forgot: Germans were shocked to see all those employees and checkout stations in WM, compared to one or two in German-owned stores - if you can find them.

So, what does this truly say about America v the rest of the world? They speak the same languages as large sections of the rest of the world does but culturally they are very different. I have an opinion and it is just mine but some things in the USA don’t sit right. Big business seems to have a stranglehold on certain aspects of everyday people's lives. To fail in so many other countries is .....interesting? Utopia would be getting all the best bits from around the world to come together in a single place. But I think that is fantasy?

Great explanation. Shocking behaviour by Apple exploiting proprietary lock in and promoting social division and the sort of pathetic snobbery that promotes division and insecurity amongst status conscious people, especially teenagers who can't laugh it off as the absurdity it is.

The concept of buying everything you could possibly need for a long while by making only one trip to one store is beyond European comprehension. Strange as hell, but hey it's their way

I guess there is culture shock for Americans.

Except EU work practices is killing their own economy. Net zero energy, foolish concept. Good luck

Dude, you should see how Aldi employees work in the US, just two or three max workers running back and forth from register to back of the store for low salary

Dude, Walmart just have an American system of shopping, which is artificial and annoying that implies the car system. In Europe people like to walk and chat, and don't make too much effort just to grab some groceries or other shopping. There's also an experience when you shop, with walkable streets and generally just enjoy once they go out. Going to Walmart isn't enjoying the ride, it's just boring because people just drive, grab things, then go back to their house, like, what else they would do in U.S? That isn't bad, it's their culture (?), but in Europe is just different

Target failed in Canada.

Part of the failure were the outlets they bought. Wertkauf, Interspar etc. had a huge investment backlog. I visited a store in Jever in the early 2000's. An old Für Sie and later Interspar. The thing looked like from another century, everything felt ancient. The outlets were rubbish, that finished of real who overtook the garbage stores.

It is not true that there aren't such big stores in Europe. In Eastern Europe there definitely are and they are very popular. In Hungary we have the exact same sized supercenters that Walmart has, selling the exact same range of products, but they are run by other companies called Tesco (a British company) and Auchan (a French company). They seem to do very well, of course they have unions, and the staff doesn't have to put fake smile on their faces, but other than that they are entirely the same as Walmart.

Act normal in a shop and not the bullshit have a nice day.These people are forced to be phony not in Europe please.

Costco needs to fail.

Most funny part is that here is the iphoone that outdaded device Cause its not supported RCS till now.

The problem was Apple doesnt support RCS.

Is it true that they also tried to pay the German female employees less than the males employees?

Not new - Target tried to expand into Canada and failed miserably - another example how Americans see everyone else through a very narrow lens of American ideas.

You walk in with a brand new paycheck and walk out with a second 30-year mortgage.

1:01 Is that a George sign outside that Walmart. I genuinely thought that was exclusive to Asda

When you have motivational shit from company just remember you'll be underpaid

What a great video. Made me laugh out loud. Yes, aren't "greeters" awful; I'd go out of my way to avoid them. And I wouldn't work for a company that made me undergo "motivational" sessions every day.

Mcdonald is called the goldenseagull in Europe because of the logo and how we draw q bird flying.

It's just industrial food? No fish counter, meat counter, fresh fruit and vegetables?

I was in Europe before 2003, then Canada and back to Europe in 2023. Despite WEF agenda to make all of us looking the same, Europe is still countries with different cultures. Europe is where real diversity is. And it includes in person shopping practice. Auchan is better than Walmart for example. At least for me. Yet, here is nothing like it in small Belgium, but bunch of same chains all over. America, Canada you have to drive to the store. Often it is not even sidewalks to the location of the store. Europe is often in the opposite. But! Amazon and AliBaba made great success in Europe. Simply because it eliminates travel and easy on return or very cheap.

LIDL/ ALDI

In have seen a lot of people in the comment section not understand that not all of Europe is the same. The mindset of the Greeks or the Spanish has nothing to do with the mindset of the Germans...

I'm not watching 18 minutes of your yammering to tell me "because Walmart sucks and Europeans don't like low quality shit."

Thanks for an entertaining and informative report! Maybe another video concerning the impactful metal scene of Sweden would be an idea? I've seem quite a few mentioning it in the comments. Both the broad popular music and maybe more narrowly niched scenens.

Walmart is a Dinosaur they never tried to understand the people or the shopping habits of the country they start up in. They should have understood the people and it's culture if they don't they will fail they thought being big would make them win big mistake, as a Britain if they tried the same thing in the UK they would fail a person saying hello at the entrance I don't like that it's cringey and people on the tills over friendly crippy!

Do German-Americans hate subtitles as well?

To be correct: The "cracks" in the nuclear power plant are in the concrete dome around the reactor, so unless there is a meltdown, it's not that bad. Meanwhile this is fixed and Doel3 is back up and running. Also at 15:42 the white text on the wall reads: "Later when all the beautiful memories take place of my sorrow I could maybe write what I cannot tell now with my tears"

walmart is made for mass/bulk-shopping with a car, while our eu supermarkets are all walkable & in reach!

The forced hospitality and greeters at entrances would just fake me feel very uncomfortable and pressured to say something in return when there is absolutely no need for such interactions to take place at all. Also I'm proud as a European that Germans told NO to Walmarts horrendous dissmisal of basic human and workers rights (unions). Imagine if Walmart tried to take over the French market with its american work culture and code of ethics - the french would probably set fire to the entirety of the stores in a week or so. That shit don't fly here.

But you don't understand! If I'm driving my giant gas guzzling pickup through 30 minutes of traffic to get groceries there better be a giant parking lot and EVERYTHING I need for a month! Because Americans are so smart, love efficiency, and of course greeters and insincere friendliness are necessary to maintain their giant egos! And those employees (slaves) better be doing those walmart chants to bow to their employers so that everyone is fake happy when they get paid nothing. Also destroying competition is good and unions are bad because they get in the way of corporate greed and could lower the higher-up's salaries from $10m to $7m annually oh no god forbid they're going to suffer so much without that extra $3m because they'll have to use a smaller private jet! America is so great! Good thing they sent walmart in europe to (exploit) save europeans from communism and keep spreading democracy like in the middle east where so many people were saved. Honestly surprised they haven't tried saving Norway yet with all that (oil) communism they have over there!

My shops are 5 min away from my home, by bike, I even could walk there... 4 different super markets a butcher, a bike shop, a greengrocer a florist, etc... all in small shops except for the supermarkets...there are 3 Chinese restaurants, several snack bars, Kebab, piazza , drugstores etc etc... all in walking or biking distance,,,cars aren't even allowed in the main shopping street, they are bad for business as we all know..

Bad service low quality, bad products...simple enough... why the USA has Walmart???? Don't you care about your health???

This “cars” should be illegal

The most supermarket friendly country in europe is maybe sweden and we need better competition as it is dominated by one to maximum 3 gross chains. Cosco are establishing them selves but i think their concept is wrong. You have to pay huge membership and still prices are high! If walmart comes here their stores could be half in size!

I always refer to this riverbed as a ‘storm drain’, and at times of high rainfall (yesterday, 13/11/24, for example!) it serves that purpose well. At such times it looks as though it is a full flowing river, and without its assistance Malaga would have been devastated. I can see no way in which it can be long term landscaped without a very difficult and expensive flood system put in place. This is I suspect the reason for the seeming procrastination.

Until 1944, "Doel-Dorp" was even the terminus of the SNCV interurban tram line 367 Sint-Niklaas - Doel. (today bus line 31 with one trip per day). The line was never electrified, it was run by classic steam trams and in the last years of operation with diesel tramcars. The once huge network of Belgian interurban trams (max. 5200km) was largely closed down after WWII.

Most important, we in Europe don’t have “people of Walmart “ 😂😂😂😂😂 those characters are unique to the USA. Low quality.

I’ve never seen a green McDonald’s interesting 🤔
