In 2002, Wal-Mart acquired a stake in the struggling retail corporation Seiyu as a way to enter the notoriously difficult, and potentially lucrative, Japanese market.

However, sales at Seiyu continue to decline, recently forcing Wal-Mart to abandon attempts to keep Seiyu's sales network in place and proceed with major store closures in a drastic cost-cutting measure. After several missteps and hastily rethought strategies, the retailing powerhouse that is Wal-Mart seems utterly out of its element in the land of the rising sun.
