T&T Supermarkets has opened the doors to its newest Western Canada location in Coquitlam, B.C. The store is the second one for the city.

T&T Supermarkets announced its plans to open two new stores in Western Canada last March, this current one in Coquitlam and a fourth Calgary location.

The 37,000-square-foot store will add 150 new colleagues to the team, and feature T&T's full assortment of Asian snacks and gifts, produce, seafood, bakery, and self-serve hot meal options like T&T's famous Chinese crepes. 

"When we opened our first location in Coquitlam 23 years ago, no one could understand why - the Asian community at the time was much smaller than it is today," says Tina Lee, CEO of T&T Supermarkets. "But what we found was that the fresh food and assortment of flavours we offer appealed to a much wider, more diverse crowd and the store was a total success. As the community continues to grow, we've felt the love for T&T grow along with it. That's why we're so pleased to be opening a second, even bigger location to better serve the needs of the community and complement our original Coquitlam Centre location."
