Bentonville, Ark. — Nationally, Walmart is planning remodels at more than 650 Supercenters and Neighborhood Markets this year, as well as opening 20 new stores in 2026 and early 2027. This investment is intended to create jobs, help strengthen local economies and make shopping faster and more convenient for its customers.
In early 2024, Walmart committed to opening or converting more than 150 new locations while continuing to update the stores in its portfolio. This year’s investment includes:
• More than 650 scheduled remodels to Supercenters and Neighborhood Markets

Walmart has already opened several new stores this year, including Walmart Supercenters in Eastvale, Calif., and Apollo Beach, Jacksonville and The Villages, Fla.; and a Walmart Neighborhood Market in Ocala, Fla. More is planned for later this year, including an expansion of the Supercenter in Tucson, Ariz., and the opening of a new Supercenter in Celina, Texas. In 2025, Walmart opened nine new stores across Alabama, California, Florida, New Jersey, Texas and Utah.
