What is Big Box Store?
A big box store is a large company that is more efficient but less specialized than other firms in a particular niche or industry.
How Does Big Box Store Work?
Wal-Mart is a classic example of a big box store. By being cheaper, bigger, more convenient, and more well-known, it has an advantage over smaller stores and specialty stores. A wide selection of merchandise is a common characteristic of a big box store.
