New Walmart Supercenter in Springfield, PA goes head-to-head with Giant

A 112,133 square foot Walmart Supercenter opened last week in Springfield, PA's Marple Crossroads Shopping Center. The store employs approximately 300 people and features more than 30 merchandise departments, including a full grocery section with fresh produce, meats, dairy products, a deli and bakery.

According to Walmart's website, the average wage for full-time hourly associates in Pennsylvania is $12.15 per hour.

The store opening comes a little more than a year after a 67,000 SF Giant Food store opened less than a half mile away in Springfield Shopping Center.
