Walmart, the\u00a0US<\/a>-based discount department stores and hypermarkets chain, is closing three more of its locations by the end of this month.<\/p>\n

That brings the total number of store closures this year to 11.<\/p>\n

Walmart has long been a go-to for shoppers looking for affordable prices in everything from electronics to household items to groceries.<\/p>\n

But with nearly a dozen stores shuttered this year, access for customers is shrinking.<\/p>\n

The three stores were set to close by late October are in two US states \u2013 Georgia and Colorado. Specifically, a store in Marietta and another in Dunwoody in Georgia are being shuttered, along with one in Aurora in Colorado.<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, Walmart stopped operating five stores in\u00a0California<\/a>, in the cities of El Cajon, Fremont, Granite Bay, San Diego and West Covina. Georgia is now the second-hardest hit state, with two stores closing.<\/p>\n

The remaining three store closures this year happened in Towson, Maryland; Columbus, Ohio; and Milwaukee, Wisconsin.<\/p>\n

Walmart reportedly decided to shut the stores it has due to their poor financial performance and theft.<\/p>\n

In May, Walmart workers at the locations closing at the time got layoff notices and were offered the choice to transfer to other stores within the company, according to\u00a0Business Insider.<\/p>\n

This year, the company has not only pulled the plug on 11 locations, but also closed 51 of its Walmart\u00a0Health<\/a>\u00a0centers, which were launched in 2019.<\/p>\n

\u2018During our five-year journey, we made meaningful impacts with patients while continuing to learn, pivot and evolve,\u2019 stated Walmart.<\/p>\n

\u2018Through our experience managing Walmart Health centers and Walmart Health Virtual Care, we determined there is not a sustainable business model for us to continue.\u2019<\/p>\n

The company stated that the decision \u2018was not easy\u2019 and \u2018we understand this change affects lives\u2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
