--FILE--Customers enter and leave a Walmart supermarket in Chongqing, China, 16 November 2013. Wal-Mart Stores Inc. s new China chief executive is aiming to expand its private clubs and lower its online prices in China, where online and offline retailers are creating stiff competition. Wal-Mart already plans to open two more Sams Club outlets in China in the next year, but it plans to pick up the pace after, said Greg Foran, Wal-Mart's China chief. He said he hopes to increase the rate of Sam's Club growth to 10 new stores per year in six to seven years. There are a couple hundred million people in China who could be Sams members, said Mr. Foran. Right now we have 1.7 million members, he said. Mr. Foran said he also aims to increase efficiency so that he can slash the prices of products sold on its Yihaodian online platform.
