Walmart Canada invests in in-store experience

MISSISSAUGA, Ont. ― Walmart Canada has announced plans to invest more than $200 million in its store network, with a focus on refurbishing and refreshing 31 stores across the country over the next year. Approximately 3,250 construction jobs will be created to support these upgrades. This latest investment builds on the retailer’s $175 million updates to its store network in its last fiscal year. Over the last five years, Walmart has invested more than $1 billion in its Canadian store network. As part of this latest investment, the company will roll out its fresh food Supercentre format to more locations and create what it calls “a more seamless experience” for BOPIS customers.
