Walmart Closing 269 Stores — Is Yakima One of Them?

Walmart announced it's going to close 269 stores in the world; 154 of them in the United States. Is Yakima on that list?

The good news is both of Yakima's locations aren't on the list, as well as Sunnyside. In fact, there isn't a Walmart closing anywhere in Washington state.

All of the Walmart Express stores will close as well as four Sam's Clubs and a few others.

On the other hand, they still plan on opening new stores across the globe.

With upping their game on e-commerce and looking for better wages for their employees, they found this to be the best solution. You can see more on why they thought that through their official statement.
