Finally: Trader Joe’s sets opening date for new store
Trader Joe’s has set an opening date for its new Fresno store: Feb. 16, a manager confirmed Tuesday.
Its new location is in the Park Crossing shopping center, at Friant Road and Fresno Street, in the same shopping center as Sportsmans Warehouse. It’s technically a move as its Blackstone location will close Feb. 15.
The new store is highly anticipated. It will be 3,000 square feet bigger than the existing location.
Some customers in central Fresno are not happy to be losing their store, and they don’t want to drive to the new one.
The new store is about 3.5 miles away from the existing Blackstone store.
