Walmart's timing regarding its latest international expansion is interesting, to say the least.
After not opening any wholesale stores in India last year, and ending its partnership with Bharti Enterprises in October, the company plans to open 50 more such outlets and an e-commerce site, Reuters reports. The announcement came as the world's second most populous country began a six-week nationwide election process. Depending on how that goes, Walmart could apply to sell directly to consumers, a revolutionary move.
