BENTONVILLE, ARK. — Walmart has unveiled its plans to build a 350-acre office campus in Bentonville that will serve as the company’s home office.

The campus will include office buildings, expanded food offerings, convenient parking, fitness options, a child care facility, bike paths, green space and lake views. The campus will also feature solar panels atop parking decks and energy-efficient lighting and HVAC systems, as well as regionally sourced building materials. A price for construction was not disclosed.
