Trader Joe’s has heard all the requests, and another New Jersey location is finally on the way. Woodridge Mayor John McCormac announced on Thursday, March 6 , that the chain is taking over a former Bed, Bath & Beyond on Route 1 across from Woodbridge Center. He did not announce an exact date for the opening but stated that Trader Joe’s had received frequent requests to bring its popular grocery store to Woodbridge.

“The most sought-after American-owned and operated grocery store is finally coming to Woodbridge after we beat out all of our neighboring towns that have been competing to attract it,” McCormac said . “Yes, we are talking about Trader Joe’s.” One Redditor revealed that they were one of the lucky fans, who submitted a request for the latest location last year.



“I live in a high density suburban area. The nearest TJ was 20/30 mins in opposite directions. I thought that the town next to mine was a prime area for a store, so I put in a location request a year ago,” a user from Reddit said in a thread from Sunday, March 9.

“A few days ago I just found out that they are putting a store in that town. I wonder if someone actually looked at my request!” The franchise is known for popular items and viral favorites, like frozen kimbap, affordable fresh flowers and healthy snacks, under its own brand name. This will be the fourth Trader Joe’s in Central Jersey, following Bridgewater , Westfield and North Brunswick .

The new grocery store also makes it the chain’s 20th location in the state. In total, the company operates over 500 stores across 43 states. New Restaurants & Stores Opening in New Jersey A popular revolving sushi bar is replacing a Microsoft store at this county mall This Burlington store in N.
