As of the end April, Wal-Mart said it employed 11,433 people in Massachusetts in 48 stores, including three Sam's Clubs stores.

Grand opening ceremonies will include product samples and giveaways, and plans call for $18,000 in donations to be distributed among such local groups as the Boys and Girls Club of North Central Massachusetts and the City of Leominster Public Library, Wal-Mart said.

The store will feature a full line of groceries in its product mix and will employ 400 people, said Wal-Mart, which added that leased space within the store will include a nail salon, a hair salon, and a Dunkin' Donuts.
