A Long Island story
Nassau already has Trader Joe’s in Garden City, Hewlett, Merrick, Oceanside and Plainview. Suffolk has Commack, Lake Grove and Miller Place.
Miller Place was the newest, opening Feb. 12 on Route 25A with more than 50 new crew members. Now Massapequa Park gets the next one.
And there’s more coming. Trader Joe’s is building a regional distribution hub on the old CA Technologies campus in Islandia, built to help it keep growing here.
We’ll share the opening date here and on air as soon as it’s announced. Keep it locked to WLIT.FM, Long Island Tonight Radio.
