Big changes are coming to your local Walmart – if you’re in California, that is.

The retail giant just announced it’s remodeling 57 stores across the state this year, and 11 of them are right in the heart of the Los Angeles area. So if your go-to Walmart’s been looking a little tired lately, don’t worry-it’s about to get a serious upgrade.
So, what is on the remodeling checklist? Pretty much everything. Walmart is introducing sleek new signage, better displays, and wider, more modernized departments. Whether you’re buying baby gear, grocery shopping, or looking through racks of new clothes, you can count on a smoother and more navigable experience. Even the pharmacies are leveling up with wider aisles and brand-new private screening rooms for a more comfortable and discreet experience.
Jay Cordray, Walmart’s Senior VP, said it best: “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.”

Walmart’s not stopping in Cali either-they’re planning to remodel over 650 stores nationwide this year. But for now, if you’re in SoCal, keep your eye on these 11 stores that are getting the first wave of updates:
- Panorama City (Nordhoff St.)
- Upland (Foothill Blvd., two locations)
- Santa Clarita (Carl Boyer Dr.)
- Oxnard (N Rose Ave.)
- Barstow (Montara Rd.)
- Moreno Valley (Moreno Beach Dr.)
- Torrance (Hawthorne Blvd.)
- West Hills (Fallbrook Ave.)
- Jurupa Valley (Limonite Ave.)
- Baldwin Park (Big Dalton Ave.)
And for Inland Empire residents, there’s even more good news: a brand new Walmart is coming to Eastvale in early 2026. The new store will bring about 300 jobs into the area and include all the latest upgrades.
Walmart is also doubling down on convenience by expanding online pickup and delivery services.
These remodels aren’t just about appearances – they’re about improving the way customers shop, in-store and online.
