To better serve its customers in Edmonton, Walmart Canada says a new Supercentre is expected to open in 2027 in Desrochers Village, on Heritage Valley Trail SW.

The retail said the approximately 140,000 square-foot southwest Edmonton Supercentre will feature:

  • A full grocery department with fresh produce, bakery, fresh protein assortment (including chicken, beef, pork and seafood) and deli
  • Its full general merchandise assortment, including home, electronics and apparel
  • A Pharmacy

It said customers will be able to access Walmart Canada’s full online order pickup and delivery options for grocery and general merchandise.

“We’ve been part of the Edmonton community since 1994 and can’t wait to bring a new Supercentre to the community, helping to make it even more convenient to shop with Walmart,” said Kelly Voisin, Director, Real Estate, Walmart Canada. “This new store is part of our $6.5 billion investment announced in 2025 that will bring even more Supercentres and our everyday low prices to customers across the country.”

In 2025, Walmart Canada said it announced a $6.5 billion investment over the next five years to expand its store and supply chain footprint. As part of this plan, in 2025 Walmart Canada opened new Supercentres in Port Credit and Oakville in Ontario and grand opened its Ambient Distribution Centre in Vaughan, ON. So far, six new Supercentres are slated to open over the next two years: Fort McMurray, AB, Sherbrooke, QC, Tsuut’ina Nation, AB, Hamilton, ON, London, ON, and Edmonton, AB. In addition, the Squamish, BC Walmart store will become a Supercentre, adding fresh grocery to our existing assortment to better serve itscustomers.

Walmart Canada operates 59 stores in Alberta, including 12 in Edmonton, and employs over 14,000 associates in the province.
