In 2010, Costco, Sam's Club and BJ's Wholesale Club were principle competitors in a nearly $125 billion discount warehouse and wholesale club industry. These companies dramatically changed the competitive landscape of retail by offering bargain-priced, broad selection merchandise to the masses through annual memberships. Major and local supermarkets, drugstores, department stores and the like have found it hard to compete with the substantially lower operating costs, advertising expenditures, overhead costs, and volume discounts offered by wholesale clubs. In addition, rapid inventory turnover affords wholesale discount clubs more cash on hand to finance higher percentages of inventory and secure better payment terms from suppliers than competing companies. Thus, chief competition has been within industry. All three warehouses employ a low-cost provider strategy; however, each has also developed ways of differentiating operating tactics and marketing strategies to improve the overall bottom line of the company.

With the same inventory levels, whether in a store or in a warehouse, the warehouse can drive the cost of this up, beyond that of in a store. Service charges are a cause of this inflated cost. The advantage the warehouse option has here, is there is plenty of space available to keep extra inventory versus what a store can hold, to guarantee a cushion of product in order to fill any customer demands. Also, centralizing stock allows easier monitoring of the stock levels for different products and due to service levels implemented in a warehouse, inventory checks can be easier in the warehouse.
