Mini tour: Walmart Heartland Town Centre-Mississauga

Today's post is my first to feature pictures of a store. I did a mini tour around the renovated Clothing department in the Heartland Walmart Supercentre.
Here's a streetview of the store.

Store description

This store opened in the mid 2000s with pre-impact and got a decor swap to 2nd gen Project Impact in 2011ish. The store features the market section on the left instead of the right side. The pharmacy is also in the middle, typical of early impact stores.
This store recently got a remodel to the clothing department with new signs, fixtures and spotlights. They also have newer self checkouts and a PickUp tower at the front. However, the rest of the store still has Project Imapct Signs.

This store has a pharmacy in the middle and a old original sign featuring the old Wal*Mart logo.

Remodeled clothing department

The last bit of this post features photos of the remodeled clothing department. Sorry about the bad quality.

 Here's an example of new department signage for the clothing eepartment. Stores remodeled in 2019 and onwards have their clothing sections remodeled with this signage.
Another view of the clothing section. My phone takes bad photos in bright light😣.
View of a typical Project Impact secondary sign fot the price scanners, which were mostly updated to the new touchscreen ones.

I hope you enjoyed this post about the remodeled clothing department at the Heartland Walmart.

Until next post, DZ

Knob Hill Farms was a chain of 10 warehouse-like “food terminals” in the Toronto area. These stores were pretty large for a supermarket at the time they operated ranging from 65,000 sqft to a gigantic 335,000 sqft. Due to financial issues, Knob Hill Farms closed/sold all their stores in 2000. History Knob Hill Farms was founded in 1954 by Steve Stavro as a more conventional grocery chain operating 9 markets in Toronto. It wasn’t until 1963 that Stravro opened his first 65,000 sqft “food terminal” in Markham. In 1971, Knob Hill Farms expanded into Pickering with its second terminal. Knob Hill Farms than opened their first Toronto store  in 1975 and second Toronto terminal opened in 1977. Their fifth store, which was billed as the largest food store in North America at the time, opened in 1978 in Mississauga. Thi

Walmart store Number Meanings

Ever wondered what each of the store numbers that are on the top of Walmart receipts mean? These store numbers identify each Walmart store internally and seem to have a common pattern based on when each store was planned/opened. Here’s a list of the store numbers Walmart currently uses in Canada and what they mean. Note that they may be anomalies to this rule and stores may not follow these “rules”.  Last updated June 20 th , 2020. Store number Meaning 3xxx 1990s built store. Also used on former Woolcos. 10xx Usually used for 2000s stores. 11xx Early 2010s stores. 12xx Mid 2010s stores. If you have anything to add to this list, please let me know in the comments. Side note: I'll be switching to my summer posting schedule of 2 posts a month from July 1st till September 1st. Until the next one: DZ
