Costco is an American multinational corporation that operates a membership-only chain of large-format warehouse stores (warehouse club).
Costco has been the world’s top retailer of choice and prime beef, rotisserie chicken, organic groceries, and wine in 2016. Costco was rated tenth on the Fortune 500 list of the top U.S. firms by total revenue in 2021.
Costco is renowned for carrying premium national and local products with a satisfaction guarantee of one hundred percent.
Members may also purchase Kirkland SignatureTM products, which are supposed to be of equivalent or higher quality than national brands and include juice, cookies, coffee, luggage, housewares, apparel, and detergent.
They also get a variety of services and specialty items, including a service deli, wheelchair access, EV charge points, tire center, optical center, ATM Machine, food court, fresh deli, and fresh bakery.
Costco has significantly increased its product and service offerings throughout the years. Initially, it preferred to offer only boxed goods that could be removed from a pallet by tearing the stretch wrap.
It now sells numerous products that are more difficult to handle, such as art, books, clothing, computer software, caskets, jewelry, fine wine, home appliances, furniture, home electronics, solar panels, hot tubs, tires, and vacuums.
Numerous warehouses feature petrol stations, pharmacies, hearing aid centers, optometrists, eye and sunglass centers, photo labs, and tire shops.
Costco is a membership-only warehouse club that offers trade, individual, and executive memberships.
The annual charge for Standard Trade Membership is £22 excluding VAT (£26.40 including VAT). Standard Individual Membership is £28 excluding VAT (£33.60 including VAT) per year.
