OREANDA-NEWS. The new Walmart Neighborhood Market in Rogers will open to the community Wednesday, Sept. 23, bringing a broad assortment of fresh, affordable groceries at Walmart’s everyday low prices. Customers will also enjoy the convenience of on-site services such as a fuel station, which opened to the public Sept. 9, a full pharmacy and a free store pickup service providing an easy way to shop millions of products on Walmart.com. The new store will employ up to 95 full- and part-time associates.
“This is a great community to be a part of,” said store manager Rocky Chouinard. “We are excited to invite residents inside to experience everyday shopping convenience.”
Fresh, Affordable Produce, Meat and Groceries
The store offers fresh produce and meat, pantry staples and a full line of groceries from leading brands.
In addition to organics and nutritious food choices, customers will also find a full-service deli and in-store bakery offering custom cakes and fresh baked breads. The new store will carry a selection of local products such as War Eagle Mill flour.
Full Service Pharmacy
The Neighborhood Market includes a pharmacy with a full range of products, immunizations and services and Walmart pharmacists ready to assist customers with product and prescription questions. Rogers residents can easily transfer prescriptions and order refills on the go with the Walmart mobile app. A drive thru pharmacy window makes prescription drop off and pick up quick and easy.
Millions of Items with Seamless Digital and In-Store Shopping
The store is approximately 41,000 square feet and offers a wide assortment of products to meet the needs of Rogers residents. Customers will find health and beauty aids, pet products and cleaning supplies. They will find hunting and fishing licenses available inside the store and at the fuel station. Shopping is more convenient than ever as Rogers residents can shop seven million items on Walmart.com, many of which can be shipped for free to any Walmart store through Walmart Pickup.
The Walmart mobile app for iPhone and Android makes shopping easier than ever. Customers can refill prescription medications, create shopping lists, search the location of items in their store, check weekly ads and prices, save eReceipts and shop Walmart.com through the app.
Job Opportunities at Walmart
The store will employ up to 95 associates for full- and part-time positions within the store. Applicants interested in careers at Walmart can apply at a store’s hiring kiosk or online at Walmartcareers.com. Chouinard began his Walmart career in 2001 as an hourly sales associate in the electronics department.
At Walmart, more than 75 percent of store management teams started as hourly associates. In 2014, 160,000 associates are promoted, and 40 percent of those promotions go to associates within the first year of their employment. Earlier this year Walmart announced it would be making more than a $1B investment in higher wages and training and other enhancements for its associates.

The grand-opening celebration includes presentations of grants from Walmart to local community groups including Rogers City Police Department, Rogers Fire Department, Children’s Advocacy Center of Benton County, Grace Hill Elementary School, Horses for Healing of NWA, Bentonville Decision Point, Samaritan Community Center and Sharing & Caring Benton County. The new store will also continue a commitment by Walmart and the Walmart Foundation to fight hunger in Rogers and across the U.S. Walmart and the Walmart Foundation recently exceeded a $2 billion goal to fight hunger one year ahead of schedule and have donated more than 1.5 billion pounds of food to those in need across the country.

Store associates will host a brief ribbon-cutting ceremony on grand opening day, Sept. 23, at 7:30 a.m. The following Saturday, Sept. 26, local residents are invited to A Big Family Welcome, which will give customers a chance to meet Chouinard and enjoy fun family activities and free food samples while supplies last.
