Holding out hope for a new store to open a bit closer to your neighborhood? Executives for Trader Joe’s have previously revealed that new locations are chosen based on several factors, including a town’s population density, customer traffic patterns and parking availability at a proposed site.
Scouts also look for potential retail spaces that “feel” like a good fit for Trader Joe’s, marketing executives Tara Miller and Matt Sloan once explained in a 2024 episode of the “Inside Trader Joe’s” podcast.
“We have to look at a huge number of potential sites to make sure that we wind up getting the best site that we can,” Sloan said.
