We’ve gotten a lot of questions lately about when, exactly, the long-desired Trader Joe’s will officially be open for business in Chattanooga.
Yesterday, we reached out + received the response that there’s no official opening date yet, but to stay tuned via the Trader Joe’s announcements page. In our Instagram comments, however, we heard through the grapevine that "mid-August is the proposed opening date." Either way, you can check out these updates that we do know:
- The store is currently hiring assistant store managers, or “mates”
- Construction has begun at the site (2111 Gunbarrel Rd.)
- A building permit for the store said that construction work is expected to be completed in late July — aka, very soon
