The brand has joined forces with Walmart, the world’s largest retailer, to continue its development in Illinois. The new location is situated inside the Walmart at 420 N Weber Rd.

The new bakery signifies Wetzel’s Pretzels’ continued expansion into high-traffic retail environments, including prime Walmart locations. The new bakery brings even more flavor to the community with its craveable snacks and refreshing drinks, a perfect pairing for any shopping trip. Veteran Wetzel’s operator Mike Alkaki is spearheading the opening. He currently operates two locations at the Orland Square mall, located in the Chicago south suburbs of Orland Park.
