I found an
Article talking about the Walmart expansion, but there was an interesting passage in it.

Details of specific store and distribution centre projects will be announced as they become finalized, but it's expected to focus on eastern Canada where it opened its first supercentre in 2013. While small grocers are experimenting with discount small-store formats, Broader said Walmart is focused on its supercentre locations-- which can range anywhere between 63,000 square feet to 220,000 square feet. The chain spent $450 million to open or expand 37 additional supercentres in 2013-14....It said six of the stores will be new, 10 will be expansions and 18 will be retrofitted to add a fresh food section. One store will be relocated.

What I thought was interesting was the inclusion of the distribution centre in the article and that they said they would be focusing on eastern Canada.
