T&T Supermarkets Expanding To California
As T&T Supermarkets prepares to open its first two U.S. stores in Washington State, the Canadian-based grocer is working to expand its American footprint and will open a new store in San Jose, Calif.
To be located in the Westgate Center, the 55,000-square-foot store at the intersection of Saratoga Avenue and Prospect Road is a former Walmart location. The grand opening is scheduled for the fall of 2025.
"We aim to create a destination," said Tina Lee, CEO of T&T Supermarkets. "It's a place for discovery, innovation, and bringing people together through food. We want to evolve our grocery store beyond the functional – we want to be the place where people want to go, not just need to go. We can't wait to share that with the people of the Bay Area."
The San Jose location will feature a BBQ counter, noodle station, dim sum and street food section, hot food bar, and a made-to-order Chinese crepe station. The store will also have an in-store bakery with freshly prepared items such as mochi puffs, egg tarts, Hong Kong-style pastries, and customized cakes.
The store will also give shoppers access to the chain's signature private label products including pineapple cakes, Taiwanese sausages, soup pork dumplings, and green onion pancakes.
T&T currently operates more than 33 stores across Canada and is a full-service unique shopping experience known for its vast selection of authentic Asian products, fresh produce, full-service meat counter, live seafood tanks, and an in-store prepared foods program like no other.
The store will create close to 200 jobs for the local community. For job opportunities, please visit www.tntsupermarket.us
