Get ready, grocery lovers! Trader Joe’s is continuing its nationwide expansion with three new stores set to open their doors this week, bringing their unique “feel” to even more communities.
The popular California-based grocer, established in 1967, has developed a devoted following, with towns often clamoring for a store in their neck of the woods. This week’s openings will further solidify Trader Joe’s presence across 43 states.
You might be wondering how they pick their spots. According to insights from the “Inside Trader Joe’s” podcast, the company employs a “controlled growth” strategy, carefully considering factors like population density, traffic flow, and parking availability. Interestingly, they intentionally avoid taking over spaces previously occupied by other grocery stores, aiming to preserve that distinctive Trader Joe’s charm.
