Millville shoppers could see a revamped Walmart experience at 2291 N. 2nd St., where the company plans to remodel its store as part of a 12-location New Jersey upgrade push in 2026. For Cumberland County residents, the biggest changes are likely to show up in the ordinary parts of a trip: faster pickup and delivery tools, updated layouts, a more private pharmacy, and expanded services inside the store near Cumberland Mall.

Walmart said the New Jersey work is part of more than 650 remodels planned nationally at Supercenters and Neighborhood Markets. The company said the statewide investment builds on more than $173 million spent upgrading New Jersey stores over the past five years, with the program intended to improve customer convenience, support local economies and create jobs.

The Millville location, Walmart #2109, is listed at 2291 N. 2nd St., with store hours of 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily. The pharmacy page for the same address lists prescription refills and vaccinations, and the remodel plan calls for upgraded pharmacies with private consultation rooms, plus Vision Centers designed for more privacy and convenience. Walmart also said the changes will include store-based app navigation and free pharmacy delivery for Walmart+ members, which could make the Millville store more useful for households trying to cut down on in-person errands.

The project lands in a part of town where the store already functions as a major retail anchor. Property data describe the Walmart-anchored center as roughly 257,974 square feet, and one database places the property’s construction in 1980. The Millville store has also come up in Walmart’s New Jersey investment plans before. In 2019, the company included Millville in a round of about $96 million in renovations, relocations or expansions across 13 New Jersey stores.

This year’s remodel list also includes other South Jersey stores in Cinnaminson, Hammonton, Pennsville, Little Egg Harbor and Lanoka Harbor. Food Trade News also listed Millville among the New Jersey stores set for 2026 work, alongside Newton, Riverdale, Union, Raritan Township, Hamilton and Old Bridge.

Walmart did not give a Millville-specific construction schedule, and the remodeling is expected to be phased through the year. That means shoppers may see rolling changes rather than a single closure, with the practical question for Millville remaining the same: whether the upgrades deliver quicker service, better pharmacy access and a more useful pickup system without disrupting a store many Cumberland County residents already rely on.
