HONG KONG: Walmart Inc is preparing to wind up its physical presence in India and has fired a third of its top executives there, said a local media report.
The executives already sacked include vice-presidents across sourcing, agri-business and fast-moving consumer goods, and the real estate team responsible for finding new store locations has been disbanded, said the report. The brick-and-mortar exit comes after a decade of struggle in India, whose government has repeatedly stymied global consumer brands in order to protect local store-owners.
