Costco

Costco is a membership-only warehouse club that offers a wide range of products and services at discounted prices. Founded in 1983, it operates on a bulk purchasing model, allowing members to buy items in larger quantities, which often results in lower prices. Costco sells groceries, electronics, clothing, and household goods, among other items, through its physical warehouse locations and online platform. The company is known for its private-label brand, Kirkland Signature, and for providing additional services such as pharmacy, optical, and tire centers. Membership is required to shop at Costco, fostering a loyal customer base that benefits from the convenience and cost savings associated with bulk buying.
