Patch reported that the California remodels are aimed at expanding grocery offerings and modernizing pickup services. According to Patch's report, remodeled stores will shift to a more "food-forward" layout, using more floor space for fresh produce, dairy, meat and grab-and-go meals. (corporate.target.com) The same report said shoppers should also see updated interiors, localized design elements, new lighting and reorganized department layouts. Patch said the redesign is also intended to give more visibility to Target's Good & Gather and Favorite Day house brands. ### What does the remodel mean for pickup and online orders? (patch.com) Patch reported that remodeled stores will receive upgraded drive-up lanes and more efficient order pickup areas intended to reduce wait times. Target's Fremont Hub store already offers Drive Up and Order Pickup, according to the company's store page, making those services a likely focus of the local upgrade. (patch.com) Target said in its March 5 announcement that store investments are also meant to help the company fulfill online orders "faster and easier" for guests. That matters because Target uses stores as both shopping destinations and local fulfillment points for same-day services. (patch.com) ### Which other California stores are on the list?
