After months of rumors, grocery chain Trader Joe’s confirmed that it will open its first store in San Antonio at the former spot of the west elm furniture store at the Quarry Village, inspiring at least one fan of the store to do a happy dance.
The company signed a lease this month for the 11,000-square-foot location and has plans to open the store this year, said Alison Mochizuki, a spokeswoman for the California-based grocer.
The new location is part of an aggressive expansion plan the company has for Texas. It’s the fifth location for Trader Joe’s in the state that’s been announced in the past few months. The other locations are in Dallas, Fort Worth, Plano and The Woodlands, according to Trader Joe’s website.
