Campers toured Sam’s Club headquarters in Bentonville and listened to a panel discussion about transitioning from college into the workforce. Students also visited a nearby Coca-Cola office, learning about the history of Coke. The field trip culminated with a tour of the Pleasant Grove Walmart. While there, Hormel employees explained product displays, assortment, placement and retail strategies to the incoming freshmen.
On the last day of program, students presented their case study regarding future mergers for Hormel and attended a Walton student orientation. Ernst & Young, the American Institute of CPAs and the Office of the Senior Associate Dean for Walton sponsored this year’s camp.
