Walmart will stop selling cigarettes in select stores across the U.S., reports AP.
Cigarettes will be removed from some stores in California, Florida, Arkansas and New Mexico; however, Walmart did not make it clear how many of its stores will remove tobacco entirely.
In place of cigarettes, the chain has added more self-checkout registers and items like candy and grab-and-go foods in some of these stores.
Decisions on removing cigarettes will be made on a store-by-store basis according to the business and particular market, Walmart said. “We are always looking at ways to meet our customers’ needs while still operating an efficient business.”
