A Major Investment in Louisiana
Walmart has announced plans to invest millions into remodeling over 35 stores specifically in Louisiana as part of a national effort to enhance over 650 locations by 2025. This initiative follows the company’s commitment to improve their stores, having already poured more than $402 million into upgrades over the last five years.

The big question on everyone’s mind is: what can we expect? Well, brace yourselves for some fantastic improvements! The renovations will include bolder signage, a stylish new look, and tons of fresh merchandise that you won’t want to miss. Plus, if you love shopping online, you’ll be thrilled to hear that expanded online services are on the agenda. Not to mention, a more private checkout experience at the pharmacy will also be in the works!
Renovations Across the Board
Some key locations include the Walmart on Airline Drive, which has already revealed its new look, and several stores in Shreveport and Bossier City will also receive attention. The store at 729 Odd Fellows Rd. in Crowley and another at 3810 NE Evangeline Thwy in Carencro are among those slated for change. If you’re in the hood, you’ll not only see but feel the difference!
Neighborhood Market Upgrades
For Bossier City residents, the Neighborhood Market is also getting some TLC.

Oh, and let’s not forget about those newly remodeled restrooms that’ll be equipped with a comfortable mother’s room for new parents. Just imagine how easy and convenient shopping will become!
Modern Touches Galore!
The renovations go above and beyond basic upgrades. We’re talking about more grocery aisles, snazzy new flooring, reorganized pharmacy layouts, enhanced bakery and deli areas, and an updated vision center with a larger selection of frames. Doesn’t that sound inviting?
