Walmart is in renovation mode: The supermarket giant is remodeling 67 stores across Texas — part of a bigger plan to remodel more than 650 stores across the U.S.
With 67 out of 650 stores, Texas gets 10 percent of the remodels. Go Texas.
A release says that the remodels will re-imagine the in-store shopping experience with updates that include:
- New look: Big, bold signage and new displays to better showcase merchandise
- More selection: Expanded departments, new items
- Expanding online pickup & delivery: To fulfill the growing number of online customer orders
- Rethinking their pharmacy: Wider aisles, a new private screening room, and privacy checkout areas
"Our stores often serve as the heartbeat of the communities we operate in, and these remodels are a testament to our dedication to enhancing that role," says Southwest Business Unit Operations senior VP Paul Lewellen in a statement. “By investing in our stores and associates, we are not only improving the shopping experience but also reinforcing our commitment to being a vital part of the community’s fabric, helping to build a brighter future for all."
Well that's a bit optimistic, but sure, dream big.
Prior to 2025, Walmart invested over $2.6 billion to upgrade stores throughout Texas in the past five years. The company is also building three new Supercenters set to open in 2025 in Cypress, Frisco, and Melissa, with a new Supercenter coming to Celina in spring 2026. Cypress is scheduled to open on April 30, and Frisco and Melissa are scheduled to open in the fall.
