At a time when many stores are closing locations or going out of business completely (we’re looking at you, Joann), there are a few chains that are growing. Home Depot, for example, just announced the opening of 11 new locations.
Now you can add Trader Joe’s to the list of expansions. It’s opening 21 new locations across the country,according to USA Today and the chain’s store locator. Here’s everything we know about the new TJ’s locations — see if any will be near you.
In short: people love Trader Joe’s. It tops the list of favorite grocery stores in customer surveys all the time, and there’s a cult-like following for a lot of its products, including frozen Mandarin Orange Chicken, Joe-Joe’s cookies, and even body butter. It tends to be a pretty good value, which probably contributes to the popularity of the brand and why it's expanding beyond the 581 locations it currently has.
Unfortunately, we don’t know when any of the 21 new Trader Joe’s stores will open yet. The store locator on Trader Joe’s website just lists these locations as “opening soon”. If there’s a location near you, it’s best to keep an eye out for news about specific stores. Continue reading for the full list of new Trader Joe’s locations opening soon, plus a couple that just recently opened.
There are two new Trader Joe’s locations that just opened earlier this month.
