What People Are Saying

“Branch County is fortunate to have businesses like Walmart Transportation and Walmart Distribution Center who continuously demonstrate their support and their long term commitment to not just Tibbits but to the whole community."

"I give Walmart credit. Both the $4 drugs and the Caterpillar agreement have started a movement toward greater transparency [in health care]."

"This [new Walmart store] is wonderful for Union County.  The additional jobs are especially important. The county's unemployment rate in January was over 17 percent, and each new job is precious."

"[The new Walmart] will provide needed jobs for several hundred people in the area, and the revenues it will generate for Cedar Hills will help us improve and add to the amenities we offer our citizens.  The building itself has already become a valuable asset to the community. We are very pleased with the outcome of the design and look of the building, and the beautiful landscaping has greatly enhanced our commercial district."

"Walmart is such an incredible force, and most people don't understand…Here is the kind of impact you could never imagine a store having, literally shaping the ecosystem in which all these other stores exist."
