Club offers convenience, savings to area families and businesses
NEW CANEY, Texas -- (Business Wire)
Sam’s Club will open its first location in New Caney Thursday, Jan. 26,
offering more savings, services and innovative shopping technology to
local families and business owners. Located at 22296 Market Place Drive,
the club will officially open following an 8 a.m. grand opening ceremony.
No membership is required to attend the celebration. Non-members can
experience the club with a one day pass available at the new club’s
Membership desk.
“Being a member of Sam’s Club means more than a membership card in a
wallet,” said Sam’s Club Manager Taylor Jones. “It means belonging to a
community of members who have exclusive access to great products, brands
and services. We look forward to not only providing our members with
amazing values but innovative shopping options like Scan & Go and Club
Pickup.”
No need to wait in line
Shopping at Sam’s Club has never been more convenient. Members of the
New Caney club can utilize the company’s new shopping app, Scan
& Go. The mobile app makes members’ checkout process faster and
more convenient by being able to scan UPC codes on items as they load
them into their cart. When they are done shopping and ready to check
out, they can pay directly on their phone from anywhere in the club and
bypass the checkout line.
More ways to shop
The New Caney club will also offer the drive-thru convenience of Club
Pickup - a concierge service for members who prefer to place an
online order and pick them up at a scheduled time. Sam’s Club associates
serve as personal shopping assistants for this service- handpicking the
items to fulfill the order. When members arrive at the club, they can
check in on their mobile device or use the drive-thru kiosk to trigger
the direct-to-vehicle delivery.
New club features
The Walmart-owned membership warehouse in New Caney will include the
following features:
-
Full service sushi bar and expanded seafood selection
-
Fresh Island offering organic and grass-fed beef and other premium
meats
-
Two spacious walk-in coolers designed to keep dairy and produce as
fresh as possible
-
Upgraded café with digital ordering station for those who want to
self-order and pay upon entering the line
-
Health and Wellness Center with a pharmacy, hearing and optical center
Commitment to community
As part of the grand opening festivities, Sam’s Club will be awarding
$25,000 in grants to several local nonprofit organizations. The company
empowers club managers and associates to identify and support community
efforts in and around the neighborhoods they serve.
“Giving back to the communities we serve is an important part of our
culture at Sam’s Club,” Jones added. “One of the best things about this
program is our associates were part of the grant selection process,
helping us identify the organizations they felt passionate about
supporting.”
Grand opening ceremony to feature local officials, special events
Members of the Greater East Montgomery County Chamber of Commerce will
be among those attending Thursday’s grand opening ceremony. The New
Caney High School ROTC will present the colors and associate Tyler

To add to the excitement, Pro Football Hall of Famer Warren Moon will be
signing autographs for fans on grand opening day, Thursday, Jan. 26 from
