Walmart Canada to open supercentre in Alberta First Nations development

Walmart Canada has confirmed its tenancy in the 1,200-acre Taza Park West development in Tsuut’ina Nation, just west of Calgary, led in partnership between Tsuut’ina Nation and Canderel.

“The new Taza Walmart Supercentre is expected to open in 2027 and will serve as the primary grocery and general merchandise retailer in Taza Park, expanding access to fresh food, household essentials, and everyday convenience for surrounding communities,” notes a press release. 

Taza will begin work on-site this fall, with Walmart Canada construction beginning in 2026.  In addition to serving as a retail anchor, the project will contribute to job opportunities to residents of Tsuut’ina Nation and the surrounding Calgary area. 

“As we expand our footprint across the country through our landmark $6.5 billion investment in Canada over the next five years, we’re proud to be part of this historic development in Tsuut’ina Nation,” said Paula Bonner, VP format development, Walmart Canada. “We’re looking forward to bringing local jobs and everyday low prices to this community.”
