Walmart is to close its office in Moscow. International chief executive Doug McMillon said: “The Russian market is a compelling retail opportunity and we believe that Russian consumers could benefit from Walmart’s value proposition.
“Since we have decided to enter the market through acquisition, not greenfield development, and since there is no clear acquisition partner in the near term, there is not a business reason to continue our Moscow representative office. We will continue to pursue market entry opportunities.”
