A new Dunkin' Donuts shop is being built inside the Big Rapids Walmart.

The walk-up-style storefront will be next to the customer service center inside the building. According to store management, the Dunkin' is set to open by the end of May during the store's grand reopening.

The Big Rapids Walmart is undergoing renovations as part of the company's "Store of the Future" campaign. It is one of 14 stores in the project, which will include upgraded screen displays, expanded delivery areas and aisle repairs. According to a recent Facebook post by the store, Walmart will host a hiring event for the remodel on Monday, Jan. 19, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Dunkin' Donuts previously had a store in Big Rapids from approximately 1992 until 2008 on Michigan Avenue, before the location turned into Bernie's Place.

This location will be the third Dunkin' shop built in west-central Michigan over the last year. The newest opened earlier this month in Cadillac on South Mitchell Street.  

More information will be posted as it becomes available.
