“People are feeling safe coming in,” Galanti said, adding that customer traffic picked up “dramatically” in July and August.
Worldwide, where Costco has a total of 795 warehouses in countries that include Canada, Spain, Korea and Taiwan, same-store sales topped 14%. Online sales surged 91% and would have more than doubled if same-day third-party grocery delivery by Instacart were included, Galanti said. “Prospects continue to look bright for , and we can’t think of another name that is better prepared to play both offense and defense in today’s fluid backdrop,” Gordon Haskett analyst Chuck Grom said in a report. Costco pricing items at a markup of only 14% to 15% above costs is “a strategy that continues to pay dividends,” he said.
Total sales last quarter rose 12.5%, to $52.3 billion. Membership fees rose 5.3%, to $1.1 billion, as Costco attracted new members and kept the membership renewal rate in the U.S. at 91% and the rest of the world’s close to 90%.
