Walmart reassesses it's super centers, retails stores, and pick-up locations year round. In New Hampshire, there are 19 Super Centers, 7 Discount Stores, and 2 Sam's Club, and Walmart employs over 8,000 people in the Granite State, according to corporate.walmart.com. In Maine there are 19 Super Centers, 3 Discount Stores, and 3 Sam's Club, making Walmart responsible for over 7,700 jobs in the state as corporate.walmart.com reports. Walmart just announced it will be closing 20 stores in 11 states. This is more than they usually close, but considering 4 of those stores are in the Chicago area, closing 20 out of the 4,700 stores in the US, seems like attrition.
