Walmart will launch another store, fuel station and drive-thru for online grocery pick-up in north Alabama on Wednesday, April 6. The new store is located at 7520 U.S. 72 West. It will be the big-box retailer’s 11th location in the Huntsville area where customers can shop for groceries online and pick them up for free, al.com reports.
A Walmart spokesman told al.com that the store will be smaller than a Neighborhood Market, but will offer a “convenient way to get gas, snacks and groceries at Walmart prices on the go.”
Walmart also plans to open a new Supercenter on Winchester Road in Huntsville in early June.
In January, Walmart shut down nine Alabama locations; the closures were part of a larger plan to shutter 269 Walmart stores across the globe, including 154 in the U.S.
Neighborhood Markets in Auburn, Phenix City, Montgomery, Theodore and Huntsville launched the same month, followed by a second Montgomery store March 2. A location in Dothan opened March 16, according to al.com.
