Winter Park Trader Joe's announces opening date

An opening date for the Winter Park Trader Joe's store has been announced.

The store is set to open at 8 a.m. Friday, June 27, store officials announced Monday.

The 12,500 square-foot grocery store is being built at 131 North Orlando Ave.

The store is part of a $23 million development project.

When the project was announced, officials said the development is not trying to compete with nearby Winter Park Village. They said they believe the new center will complement the area, adding things Winter Park Village doesn’t have.
