The first facility will open in the greater St. Louis area
(Edwardsville, Ill.), in January 2024. The 370,000 square-foot
facility will be located at 5710 Inner Park Dr., and serve as a
distribution center and fulfillment center, creating more than 100
jobs across the region. Hourly associate hiring for the center will
begin in early December. Walmart Inc. is a top employer in Illinois
with more than 57,000 associates.
The Shakopee, Minn., facility will be located at 7400 Hentges
Way and will serve as a multipurpose distribution center. The
365,000 square-foot facility is scheduled to open in March 2024,
and will employ more than 80 associates. Hiring is already
underway. Walmart Inc. employs more than 24,000 associates across
Minnesota.
“We’re excited to extend our supply chain network and
capabilities for our clubs and members in the region,” said Joseph
Godsey, SVP of Supply Chain at Sam’s Club. “We’re designing our
supply chain network to strengthen our omni-channel experience and
increase efficiencies and delivery speed to wherever our members
decide to shop with us and receive their products.”
The announcement of these two new locations comes as Sam’s Club
has also recently shared plans to open a new distribution center in
Oklahoma City, Okla. and a new fulfillment center in Lithia
Springs, Ga. (outside of Atlanta).
