WALMART Stores Inc named another member of the founding Walton clan as its next chairman, renewing concerns that the world's largest retailer is still run like a family business.
Greg Penner, the grandson-in-law of Walmart creator Sam Walton, will become only the third chairman in the company's 53-year history. He replaces Rob Walton, the oldest son of the founder, who has held the role since 1992.
