4/12/2019
Walmart is shifting its focus to remodels as it revamps its brick-and-mortar stores for the digital age.

The retail giant recently announced store plans for 10 states, which encompass a total expected investment of over $1 billion. Nearly all of the capital is going towards remodeling — only two new locations were included in the plans. The remodeling effort includes the launch and continued expansion of several customer-focused innovations, including high-tech “pick-up towers,” autonomous self-driving floor scrubbers and automated shelf scanners. The chain is also expanding online grocery pickup and grocery delivery services.
