T&T Supermarket has announced plans to expand further into the U.S. with a new store in San Jose, California, set to pen in Fall 2025.
The Asian grocery retailer announced plans to expand into the U.S. last year.
The new store, located at Westgate Centre in San Jose, California, will be a 55,000 sq ft retail space in a former Walmart location.
T&T currently operates over 33 stores across Canada, and is a full service shopping experience known for its vast selection of authentic Asian products, fresh produce, full service meat counter, live seafood tanks, and an in-store prepared foods program like no other.
The new location will feature a BBQ counter, noodle station, dim sum and street food section, hot food bar, and a made to order Chinese crepe station. The store will also have an in-store bakery with freshly prepared delights such as mochi puffs, egg tarts, Hong Kong style pastries and customized cakes. It will be the first time Californians will be able to access the chain’s signature Private Label products including pineapple cakes, Taiwanese sausages, soup pork dumplings and green onion pancakes, all at great prices.
We aim to create a destination,” said Tina Lee, CEO of T&T Supermarkets. “It’s a place for discovery, innovation, and bringing people together through food. We want to evolve our grocery store beyond the functional – we want to be the place where people want to go, not just need to go. We can’t wait to share that with the people of the Bay Area. “San Jose is a very special place to me,” continues Lee. “My aunt lives in Saratoga, and I have spent many summers there. It brings back great memories. This store is for her.”
