Trader Joe's to open 1st location in New Orleans

The new store will open Thursday, Aug. 14. 0:56 Trader Joe's is bringing its store to a new community. The California-based grocery chain announced Monday that it will open a new location in New Orleans, Louisiana, at 2501 Tulane Ave., marking its debut in The Crescent City, according to a press release. The grand opening is set for Thursday, Aug. 14, at 9 a.m., with the store open daily from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. 'Please join Captain Rachelle and Crew for the Grand Opening Celebration,' the announcement read. 'We look forward to seeing you!' Colette Wharton, regional director and asset manager at The Feil Organization, the real estate company that owns the land the location sits on, called the opening a proud milestone for both the company and the community. 'Bringing the first Trader Joe's to New Orleans is not just a milestone for the vitality of the Tulane Avenue corridor -- it's a proud moment for the Feil Organization after years of collaboration and a meaningful win for the entire community,' Wharton said in the release. 'From day one, our goal was to unlock the potential of this premier location to deliver lasting value to the region. The arrival of Trader Joe's is a testament to that vision, and we're incredibly grateful to our exceptional planning, design, construction, and development partners for helping bring it to life.' The New Orleans store will be Trader Joe's third in Louisiana, joining locations in Metairie and Baton Rouge.

Trader Joe's to open first New Orleans store this week

Trader Joe's will open its first store in New Orleans on Thursday, with another to follow later. Why it matters: The grocer's expansion raises the stakes in southeast Louisiana's crowded grocery scene. The big picture: The Mid-City store opens Thursday morning at 2501 Tulane Ave., says The Feil Organization, which owns the property. Trader Joe's also has a store in the works at the corner of Napoleon Avenue and Freret Street, according to its website. It already has locations in Metairie and Baton Rouge. Zoom in: Trader Joe's sells products under its own label, and shoppers often view the items as dupes for higher-priced options elsewhere. The grocer is known for its frozen items, cheap wine, creative snacks (pickle popcorn!), fresh flowers, beauty products and customer service. Zoom out: Trader Joe's has less than 1% market share of the New Orleans grocery market as of last year, according to Chain Store Guide. Walmart is the top dog with 38.2%, followed by Rouses, Sam's Club, Costco and Winn-Dixie, the data shows. Go deeper.
