Trader Joe’s is opening its State College-based location next month, the grocery store announced Monday.
The specialty store, to be located at 243 Patriot Lane off North Atherton Street, is set to open Nov. 9. It’s made its mark by offering more than 2,000 items under its own label. According to the store, it takes a brand name product, removes preservatives, artificial coloring and ingredients and sells it under its label at a discounted price.
Once the store opens, State College residents will receive a Trader Joe’s “Fearless Flyer” in the mail. Each edition highlights timely selections of products the store believes are worthy of customer interest.
And, the store is immediately starting its search for employees. If you are interested in applying for a crew member position, you must do so in person, and applications will be accepted starting at 10 a.m. Tuesday.
The 12,500 square feet store will be open daily from 8 a.m.-9 p.m.
