Is your Walmart getting a face-lift? Company selects 25 Colorado stores to be remodeled

Walmart has announced plans to remodel 25 of its Colorado stores this year. Among the stores are locations in Arvada, Denver, Aurora and Colorado Springs.

The retail giant aims to remodel more than 650 stores nationwide as part of its broader brand refresh.

“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 Jay Cordray, Walmart senior vice president and West U.S. business operations lead.

The planned updates will feature new bold signage and displays to better highlight merchandise, departments offering new products and an expansion of their online pickup and delivery services to fulfill the growing number of online customer orders.

The pharmacy areas will also be redesigned with wider aisles, a private screening room and checkout zones that offer more privacy for customers.

Over the past few years, Walmart has invested over $310 million to upgrade stores across the state. The following Walmart locations in Colorado have been selected for remodeling:

“When we go in and we’re doing a remodel and we’re investing in a store, I love to see the impact that it has on the community,” said Walmart vice president of realty execution Joni Sartain.

“We need to stay focused on serving our customers how they want us to serve them.”

With 104 retail units and two supply chain facilities, Walmart employs over 29,000 associates in Colorado. In 2024, the retailer spent $2.7 billion with Colorado-based suppliers, supporting more than 28,000 local jobs.

Additionally, this year, Walmart has donated more than 13 million pounds of food to food banks throughout the state.
