BA LA NW SD Seattle, WA 98124-1088 ostco holds its annual shareholders’ meeting each year in late January; like so many other events over the past several months, the 2021 meeting was conducted virtually. While we’re already at the midpoint of our corporate fiscal year, I thought some of the highlights from the meeting would be of interest to you. In response to the tremendous challenges brought on by COVID-19, Costco was categorized as an essential business. This means our warehouse doors stayed open and we were able to provide food, gas and essentials in the communities we serve—while also taking measures to keep employees and members as safe as possible. In regard to keeping items in stock, we faced the double challenge of short supplies, as the pandemic closed manufacturing facilities, and increased demand, as people sought to stock up. But thanks to the hard work of our suppliers, buyers and warehouse operators, we did everything possible to keep our shelves stocked. The number of visitors to Costco warehouses was lower during certain times of the pandemic. Meanwhile, the online business at Costco.com was definitely up. Big sellers there were fresh grocery deliveries through Costco Grocery and big and bulky items like appliances that need home delivery. We’ve seen warehouse visits rebound. Looking ahead, the focus stays on safety, meeting our members’ demands and handling the responsibility of being an essential business. We plan to keep growing—our annual target is 20 or so new Costco locations in the U.S. and around the world. We anticipate continued bumps in getting some items onto our warehouse shelves or online at Costco.com, but we’re working hard to avoid any inconveniences. © COSTCO PHOTO STUDIO C ART DIRECTOR Lory Williams, [email protected] Tim Talevich is Editorial Director, Costco Connection A Costco milestone We recently went over the 800 mark in terms of Costco warehouses around the world.
