There has been a lot of speculation lately about whether or not Trader Joe’s is coming to Ormond Beach. While the grocery chain has not made any official announcement, there are several indications that it may be headed to the area.
First, a new development called “The Shoppes at Trade Winds” is currently under construction in Ormond Beach. The development is being built on the site of a former Winn-Dixie store, which closed last year. The Shoppes at Trade Winds will feature a number of retail and restaurant tenants, including a 12,000 square foot space that is reportedly being leased by Trader Joe’s.
Second, a job listing has surfaced for a store manager position at a Trader Joe’s location in Ormond Beach. The listing was posted on the website of a national executive search firm that specializes in finding candidates for grocery stores and other retail businesses.
Third, several local residents have reported seeing Trader Joe’s employees scouting out locations in Ormond Beach. One resident even reported hearing an employee say that the company was planning to open a store in the area.
If all of these reports are true, it seems likely that Trader Joe’s is indeed coming to Ormond Beach. This would be great news for local residents who have been hoping for a Trader Joe’s in the area. The grocery chain is known for its affordable prices and unique selection of items, and it would no doubt be a welcome addition to the Ormond Beach community.
