Wal-Mart will close two retail-only locations in Baltimore and Anne Arundel counties and launch three new supercenters in time for the 2007 holiday shopping season. Two centers will replace existing locations in Glen Burnie and Cockeysville and one will be built in Arbutus. The supercenters will have both goods departments and a grocery store.

“Wal-Mart is a good customer, and we have some great plans for this area,” said Eric Regelin, president of Atlantic Builders Group Inc., the group chosen to develop the three new locations. “We understand they have some other projects coming up, and we hope to be part of those, too.”
