I have heard the comparisons seperately but i think there are the strengths of both "walmart" & "7-11" present in GLCC.

Comparing GLCC to Wal-Mart: strength in having large CDC's (central distribution centers - Logistics centers), heavy in IT and logistical support to franchise locations, producing & marketing their own line of higher profit products & put on the shelves of their own stores, future growth and stability of a very large corp. imo logistics is the key to walmarts success.

comparing to 7-11: many, many small & convient stores, national name recognition (everyone knows what a 7-11 is, even if they call it Circle K, Ha!), iron clad relationship with very large petroleum refiner, solid franchise training and support.

combining just these traits of the two makes GLCC a MONSTER! IMHO of course.

long and stong......
