Not quite right on the ownership. BJ's is privately owned. Sam's is part of Walmart.
BJ's Wholesale Club, which has 215 warehouses spanning 16 states, closely competes with Costco and Sam's Club, a unit of Walmart. The company was taken private by equity firms Leonard Green & Partners LP and CVC Capital in 2011 for $2.8 billion.Jun 27, 2018

Had one in Pompano and it was competition for Costco. Will certainly beat Sam's.
