Costco's strategic vision is to provide customers with the best value at the lowest possible prices. Its mission is to continually provide members with quality goods and services at the lowest prices while treating people with respect. Costco pursues a low cost strategy by offering a limited selection of fast-selling products in bulk quantities and by aggressively pricing items lower than competitors. It focuses on satisfying customers to build loyalty rather than prioritizing shareholder profits. Currently, Costco is a mature company with over 55 million members and 567 warehouse locations globally.
