Yorktown News: Trader Joe’s Officially Announces Yorktown Location

YORKTOWN, N.Y. – Trader Joe’s has finally broken its silence regarding its Yorktown store.

Last week, the grocery store chain formally added Yorktown to the list of locations on its website, confirming what Yorktown News first reported nearly a year ago.

Building plans filed with the town in May 2021 revealed that Trader Joe’s will be the tenant of the 12,500-square-foot building that is currently under construction at the Lowe’s shopping center on Crompond Road.

Despite the evidence, Breslin Realty, the shopping center’s developer, was contractually obligated to keep the identity of the grocer under wraps.

Trader Joe’s, meanwhile, had also not publicly commented on its Yorktown store—until now.

“We are excited to be coming to Yorktown,” wrote Nakia Rohde, Trader Joe’s public relations manager, in an email to Yorktown News on Tuesday.

Rohde did not share a timeline for the store’s opening. On March 7, however, a Breslin Realty executive said the store should be ready by to open in “early summer.”
