PROSPECTS

Membership model to maintain high spending

In June 2017, Costco announced it was raising membership fees by 9%. Despite this, it reported in December 2017 that membership renewal rates in the US remained consistent at 90%.

E-commerce emerges as a priority

Whilst warehouse clubs have had an e-commerce presence for years, online product offerings were typically big-ticket items that were not available in stores. Retailers were slow to offer grocery items online, but by 2017, warehouse clubs decided that the opportunities in online groceries were too great to ignore.

Shrinking household size presents a potential obstacle to growth

The average household size in the US is expected to continue to shrink over the forecast period. This presents a potential obstacle for the warehouse clubs model, which offers low prices through bulk purchases.

COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE

Costco extends its dominance

Costco Wholesale Corp extended its dominance in warehouse clubs in 2017, and its share growth is expected to accelerate, given Walmart’s store closures in January 2018. Its dominance stems from its ability to appeal to higher-income households.

Sam’s Club announces significant store closures

Whilst Costco ranks first in value terms, Walmart’s Sam’s Club chain maintains a larger store base, and was the leader in warehouse clubs in terms of both outlets and sales area in 2017. It took a significant hit in January 2018, however, when it unexpectedly closed 63 US locations.

BJ’s courts consumers affected by Sam’s Club closures

BJ's Wholesale Club remains a distant third in warehouse clubs – a regional player with a store base limited to a handful of states on the East Coast. Despite this, the company has maintained its share in a rapidly-growing channel through innovative efforts.
