The store also revealed a new community-inspired mural. According to Walmart, the artwork is “a celebration of the community’s rich farming and fishing history and Centenary University, an educational landmark since 1867.”

The updates in Hackettstown are part of Walmart’s $75 million investment to refresh and 11 stores in New Jersey.

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.
