Walmart U.S. CEO Foran to exit and be replaced by Sam's Club boss Furner

Walmart Inc said on Thursday its chief executive for U.S. operations, Greg Foran, will leave the company early next year and be replaced by the head of its Sam's Club warehouse chain unit, John Furner. Foran's departure is likely to be considered a blow for Walmart given the New Zealand native is credited with turning around Walmart's U.S. business by focusing on improving existing stores. Walmart reported 20 quarters of comparable sales growth under his leadership.
