After debuting three flagship Supercenter designs in Secaucus, North Bergen and Teterboro, the retailer has also remodeled other stores over the last two-and-a-half years. Updated locations include Freehold, Kearny, Bayonne, East Brunswick, Burlington and Linden.
Within New Jersey, Walmart employs nearly 25,000 associates across its 35 Supercenters, 27 discount stores and eight Sam’s Club wholesale locations.
