Our largest customer, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., accounted for 13.0%, 13.8% and 13.3% of consolidated sales in fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Sales to Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. were included in the Chicken, Beef, Pork and Prepared Foods segments. Any extended discontinuance of sales to this customer could, if not replaced, have a material impact on our operations.
The majority of our operations are domiciled in the United States. Approximately 96%, 95% and 96% of sales to external customers for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, were sourced from the United States. Approximately $6.1 billion and $5.9 billion of long-lived assets were located in the United States at September 28, 2013, and September 29, 2012, respectively. Approximately $485 million and $564 million of long-lived assets were located in foreign countries, primarily Brazil, China, Mexico and India, at September 28, 2013, and September 29, 2012, respectively.

Our export sales from the United States totaled $4.2 billion, $4.0 billion and $4.1 billion for fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Substantially all of our export sales are facilitated through unaffiliated brokers, marketing associations and foreign sales staffs. Sales of products produced in a country other than the United States were less than 10% of consolidated sales for each of fiscal 2013, 2012 and 2011.
