Freddy Cameron

Sam's Club


Freddy Cameron got his start as a utility clerk– a fancy title for grocery cart pusher– for a local grocery store as he worked his way through school. Cameron was promoted to supervisor within a year, and his rise in retail continued as he landed a position as a leader in merchandising for one of the nation's largest big box retailers. He started his career with Costco Wholesale in 1998 as a Foods Grocery Merchandiser, then became Foods Grocery Supervisor and was later promoted to Senior Merchandise Manager in 2003 where he oversaw Merchandising Operations. He was promoted to a Regional Merchandising Position in 2006 and while in this role, he worked with the Regional Buying Teams in the areas of Food, Grocery and other specialty areas. In 2013, Cameron left Costco and took a position at Sam's Club as the General Manager of Operations for the Los Angeles Metro area where he currently oversees Club Operations and Merchandising, with a focus on Supplier Diversity. Cameron attended American Public University in West Virginia where he earned a BA degree in Business Management. Cameron is also the current Co-host on the CW Network Television series "Hatched," where he serves as the shows retail expert.
