Regular visitors to Guadalajara’s Galerias mall can be torn between two choices of membership-only warehouse clubs situated on either side of Avenida Rafael Sanzio: Sam’s and Costco.
Not only do the two U.S. giants fight for customers north of the border but they are also engaged in a fierce territorial battle in Mexico.
Although Sam’s is associated with Mexico’s largest retailer, Wal-Mart, recent data indicates that Costco is winning the war – by some margin.
