Trader Joe's is set to open in Bellingham
Whatcom County is finally getting the much anticpated Trader Joe's store. It is occupying a familiar space on the corner of James Street and Alabama which used to house the Red Apple Grocery Store (but us long-timers knew it as Clark's Market).
Trader Joe's offers a variety of specialy food items that is a feast for the eyes and nose. The store opens Friday, September 28, 2007 at 9:00 a.m. and will employ about 65 people in the 12,000 square foot facility. Many people previously traveled to Everett to find their favorite Trader Joe's items, now Whatcom County will have their own store.
