Confirmation at Last: Trader Joe’s to Bring Its Signature Groceries to Reading
Trader Joe’s has confirmed plans to open a new store in Reading, Massachusetts, bringing the popular grocery chain’s unique selection of affordable, high-quality products to the community.
In an official communication received this morning from Nakia Rohde, Public Relations Manager at Trader Joe’s, the company stated: “I’m happy to share that we have plans for a Trader Joe’s store in Reading.” While a specific location and opening timeline have not yet been determined, Trader Joe’s has committed to providing updates as soon as an opening date is available.

This confirmation follows months of local anticipation and reports from employees who referenced a company bulletin indicating a future store in Reading, MA. Earlier inquiries in July 2025 received a response that no location was confirmed at that time, but today’s update marks official acknowledgment of the expansion plans.
Trader Joe’s currently operates numerous locations across Massachusetts and continues to expand thoughtfully, focusing on neighborhoods that align with their community-oriented approach. No further details on site selection or construction are available at this time.
