Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market

Interior of Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market.

Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market stores are designed to be the opposite of vastly larger superstores. These smaller stores are meant to "woo shoppers with easier parking, less crowded aisles and quicker checkout". Neighborhood Market stores offer a variety of products including fresh produce, deli foods, fresh meat, dairy items, pharmaceuticals, health and beauty aids, photo developing services, and a small selection of general merchandise. Generally located in markets with Wal-Mart Supercenters, they supplement Wal-Mart's strong food distribution network and provide added convenience.

First opened in 1998, Neighborhood Markets range from 42,000 to 55,000 square feet (3,900 to 5,100 m²), which is a quarter of the size of a typical U.S Wal-Mart Supercentre. In most countries outside the U.S. stores of this scale would be classified as good sized hypermarkets. Neighborhood Markets employ 80–100 associates and offer about 28,000 items.
