BBC World Service - Business Matters, World's largest retailer sees sales jump

Walmart records another jump in sales during covid-19 period

As the world's largest retailer, Walmart records another jump in sales - we assess if the a post-corona world will be dominated by only big companies. Should we all be wearing face masks in our offices? The French Government says yes as it brings in new regulations. Cyberspace is stepping in where nightclubs are closed - but server crashes mean the experience leaves many underwhelmed. And just when you though there was no need for office space in the cities any more, Amazon expands its office space in US cities. We discuss all this live with Jeanette Rodrigues in Mumbai and Andy Uhler of Marketplace radio in Austin, Texas.
