Walmart announced Wednesday it has plans to remodel 26 stores across Pennsylvania this year, including some local shops.
The nearest stores in the greater Pittsburgh area getting remodeled include 300 Walmart Drive in Gibsonia, 100 Highlands Mall in Harrison, 150 Town Centre Drive in Johnstown, 30 Trinity Point Drive in Washington, 2028 N Center Ave. in Somerset, 3942 Brodhead Road in Monaca and 21920 Route 119 in Punxsutawney.
The remodels will focus on enhancing the associate experience and community engagement, Walmart said. Pennsylvania’s 26 stores are part of a remodel of more than 650 stores across the U.S.
Specifically, updates will include:
- New signage, as well as new displays to better showcase merchandise
- Expanded departments and new items in stock to align with what customers are looking for
- Expanded online pickup and delivery to fulfill the growing number of online customer orders
- Pharmacy upgrades like wider aisles, new private screening room and privacy checkout areas
Throughout the past five years, Walmart has invested more than $493 million to upgrade stores throughout Pennsylvania already.
“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,” said Annie Walker, senior vice president of the East Business Unit at Walmart.
