Overview
- Walmart detailed the national plan Thursday, saying it will remodel more than 650 stores this year and schedule about 20 openings for 2026 through early 2027.
- Upgrades include wider aisles, refreshed interiors, updated pharmacies and vision centers, more pickup and express delivery options, and in-app tools like aisle maps and Scan & Go.
- The rollout lists 56 remodels in California, 58 in Florida, and 10 in Connecticut, while Texas reports point to 72 stores set for work this year.
- The company says its delivery network reaches 95% of U.S. households in three hours or less, and remodeled sites add free pharmacy delivery for Walmart+ members, including GLP-1 medications.
- Walmart ties the investment to construction and long-term retail jobs and to recent gains in e-commerce and new store growth, with nine openings in 2025 and additional projects in Arizona and Texas.
