Do the same people who own Walmart also own Walgreens?

• No.

  Walmart was founded by Sam Walton in the 1960s in Arkansas.

  Walgreens was founded by Charles Walgreen in the 1890s in Chicago.

• Walgreens Walmart

• No

  Walmart and Walgreen’s are different companies. We all know the story of sam walmart.

  However , Walgreen’s was started as a company called Dodd’s Drugs in Cincinnati and was the first woman owned business in the united states

• Jo’s uncle Fred owns a few shares of both, is that what you mean?

  The Walton family does not own Walgreen’s Drug stores.

• They are 2 separate publicly owned companies. No one owns either.

• Nope, but they do own Sam’s Club.

• I don’t think so…
