The Admiral and Memorial Walmart will reopen sometime this fall.
"Plumbing repairs and store upgrades are still ongoing, [but] our goal is to begin serving customers by late October or early November," said Walmart spokeswoman Erica Jones.
The east Tulsa store and four other Walmart Supercenters across the country closed suddenly on the same day in April. At the time, the company said the stores had plumbing problems that would take at least six months to fix.
Walmart has started to look for employees for the Tulsa store's reopening. Jones said 75 percent of employees there when it closed transferred to other stores, but they are welcome to apply to work there again.
Walmart has a hiring center in Village Square Shopping Center at 21st and Memorial. It’s open Monday through Friday, 8 a.m.–6 p.m.
