The rumors are true: Trader Joe’s is making its way to Yonkers soon! Although Trader Joe’s didn’t confirm the exact opening date or location, the fan-favorite chain is expected to make an official announcement with exact details closer to its launch. This will mark Trader Joe’s fifth Westchester location, following other locations in Hartsdale, Larchmont, Scarsdale, and Yorktown. On a national level, there are over 600 Trader Joe’s store locations, with more stores coming soon.
“Yonkers is a vibrant community, and it’s been clear to us that for a long time that this city deserves a Trader Joe’s. We’re thrilled to bring a new store here and look forward to being a welcoming, friendly spot for our Yonkers neighbors to shop,” says regional vice president Sunshine Haven.

Unique and Interesting Goods
Since opening its first store in Pasadena, California in 1967, Trader Joe’s has kept its promise of offering a wide variety of quality products at the best everyday prices. Instead of carrying branded items, Trader Joe’s features unique and interesting goods under the Trader Joe’s brand.
Trader Joe’s (also known as “TJs”) is known for teasing its loyal customer fanbase with new products like French-style pastries called cannelés or rice pudding cups that come with a side of childhood nostalgia. The brand also features an engaging podcast focused new product releases, recipes, contests, and other niche topics.
