T&T Supermarket is continuing its U.S. growth push with plans to open a new California location next month.
The Canadian Asian grocery banner will open a 55,000-sq.-ft. store at Westgate Center in San Jose on June 18, marking its California debut following recent expansion into Washington state with locations in Bellevue and Lynwood.
Additional Northern California stores are already planned for San Francisco and Millbrae, while the retailer is also preparing to enter Southern California with upcoming locations in Chino Hills and Irvine.
The San Jose store will stock thousands of products across Chinese, Taiwanese, Japanese, Korean and Southeast Asian cuisines.
The location will also feature prepared meals, bakery products, made-to-order street food, live seafood, trending snacks, beauty items and other specialty offerings.
“San Jose is a long-anticipated store,” said Tina Lee, CEO of T&T Supermarkets. “We’re bringing more than just exciting, high-quality foods.
“We’re exporting a new way of life from Canada: one that’s deeply food-centric, celebratory, rich in tradition, and fresh-obsessed.
“We aim to help Asian families stay connected to the food and traditions they grew up with. In pursuit of this cause, T&T has also become a destination for Asian food discovery for everyone.”
Founded in Vancouver in 1993, T&T Supermarket operates 39 stores across Canada and the United States. The company is headquartered in Richmond, British Columbia.
