OREANDA-NEWS. The expanded Milpitas Walmart is opening Wednesday, Sept. 16, following a brief ribbon-cutting ceremony at 7:30 a.m. The expanded store is conveniently located at 301 Ranch Drive and is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The store will provide Milpitas residents with low prices on a broad assortment of groceries and merchandise, along with a full service pharmacy. Walmart is making shopping more convenient than ever as local residents can shop for more than a million additional items online on Walmart.com and pick them up at the expanded Milpitas Walmart store for free, often as quickly as the same day.


The expanded store employs approximately 300 full- and part-time associates, approximately 80 of which were created by the expansion. Store manager Abraham Arroyo began his Walmart career in 2004 as an hourly associate in the produce department.

“With our bigger space, we are ready to meet an even larger amount of our customers’ needs,” said Arroyo.

Fresh, Affordable Produce, Meat and Groceries
Milpitas customers will find meal and entertaining essentials, fresh produce and a full line of groceries from leading brand names, including organic selections. By working with growers, Walmart is able to provide farm-grown quality produce at added convenience and low prices. There is also a wide variety of meat and bakery selections, including fresh baked breads and tortillas.

Convenient Local Pharmacy and General Merchandise
In addition to groceries, the store features quality, value-priced general merchandise, including electronics, furniture, home decor, automotive, sporting goods, home improvement and more.

The pharmacy offers a full range of products and services. Pharmacy team members are ready to assist customers with product and prescription questions. Milpitas residents can easily transfer prescriptions and order refills on the go with the Walmart mobile app for iPhone and Android. 

Community Giving
In addition to the grants given as part of the grand opening, the new store will further Walmart’s pledge to fight hunger in America. As part of Walmart’s and the Walmart Foundation’s $2 billion commitment to fight hunger through 2015, Walmart stores in California donated approximately 23.1 million pounds of food, in fiscal year 2014, or the equivalent of 19.3 million meals. Additionally, Walmart and the Walmart Foundation gave more than $47.1 million in fiscal year 2014 in California alone.
