Walmart Canada announced Wednesday it is set to open a new Supercentre at Bramalea City Centre in Brampton, with the store expected to open in 2027.
The approximately 140,000-square-foot location will become a new anchor tenant at the shopping centre and offer a full grocery assortment, general merchandise, pharmacy, and pickup and delivery services, said the retailer.
The announcement comes as Brampton continues to grow and marks Walmart’s sixth Supercentre in the city. It’s also part of Walmart Canada’s broader $6.5 billion investment in Canada announced last year, it said.
It will be located at 25 Peel Centre Drive at Brampton’s largest shopping destination. The store replaces a Decathlon store and Activate as well as Designer Depot, all of which occupied a former Target space in the mall.
It said the Supercentre will feature:
- Walmart’s full general merchandise assortment, including fashion, home goods, electronics, health and wellness, seasonal items and more
- A full grocery assortment of fresh produce, chicken, beef, pork and seafood, deli foods, baked goods, dairy products, frozen foods and dry grocery items
- A Walmart Pharmacy
- Convenient pickup and delivery from store
“We’ve been a part of the Brampton community since 1994 and we’re excited to bring this new Supercentre – our sixth in the city – to Bramalea City Centre,” said Shawn Fujiki, Senior Director, Real Estate, Walmart Canada. “We’re opening this new Supercentre as part of our $6.5 billion investment in Canada announced last year, which will help to bring our everyday low prices to even more customers across the country.”
“We’re excited to welcome Walmart Canada to Bramalea City Centre and further strengthen our offering for our customers and surrounding community,” said Andrew Butler, General Manager, Bramalea City Centre. “The addition of a Walmart Supercentre will bring value and convenience while enhancing the overall shopping experience at the centre, especially for the families that make up the majority of our customers. ”
Bramalea City Centre is one of Canada’s largest enclosed shopping centres, spanning approximately 1.5 million square feet of retail space with more than 300 stores and services. Owned and managed by Morguard Investments Limited, BCC is evolving to enhance its overall visitor experience, it said. This includes refining its tenant mix – such as the addition of Walmart – and a recently- completed multi-million-dollar renovation.
