A New Walmart Neighborhood Market is Coming to Palmetto

Palmetto, FL – August 2025 – Big news for local shoppers: a brand-new Walmart Neighborhood Market is headed to Palmetto. The store is planned for 6100 Buckeye Road, in a future retail plaza off Artisan Lakes Parkway near the Artisan Palmetto Retail West plaza, adding fresh energy to one of Manatee County’s fastest-growing retail corridors.

Future Location for New Walmart Neighborhood Market

What’s on the Way

Unlike the giant supercenters, Walmart’s Neighborhood Market format focuses on groceries, fresh foods, and everyday essentials—making it a convenient one-stop shop for nearby residents. The Artisan Palmetto Retail West plaza is already becoming a hub of retail activity, and the addition of Walmart is expected to bring more foot traffic, new jobs, and synergy for surrounding businesses.

Why It Matters for Palmetto

This project speaks to some larger shifts we’re seeing in the region:

  • Convenience First: People want fresh food and groceries close to home.
  • Population Growth: With more people moving east of Bradenton, demand for retail and grocery options keeps climbing.
  • Community Impact: Beyond shopping, stores like this often become gathering points—another anchor in Palmetto’s evolving retail landscape.

Looking Ahead

While construction timelines and opening dates haven’t been finalized, this development represents another step forward in Palmetto’s retail growth story. Shoppers can expect easier access to groceries, new job opportunities, and more reasons to stay local for their daily needs.

So, keep an eye out—before long, the corner of Buckeye Road will be buzzing with activity as Walmart opens its doors and adds a new chapter to Palmetto’s retail expansion.
