A New Big Kid is coming to town: Now hiring in Stamford for its newest location: Trader Joe's is a comin' soon

Trader Joe's representatives interviewing prospective 
employees at the High Ridge Center Parking lot last Thursday

About two and a half years after Borders Books sadly closed its doors at its High Ridge Road location in Stamford, workers have been busy finishing the transformation and fleshing out of the skeleton of Borders into a unique grocery shopping venue.

 This past week Trader Joes has been actively hiring personnel  under an open canopy in the High Ridge Center parking lot adjacent to its new location.

The fifty- five year old chain began in California and has over 470 stores, most of which are in the Golden State. Its nearest store is in Darien.

The Supermarket activity is heating up in our community.

Just two years ago, The Fairway Market opened up in the South end.

The High Ridge Road area near exit 35 already has a number of established markets: notably the A&P store adjacent to the Merritt and Mrs.Greens located on the opposite side of High Ridge just south of its newest competitor.

It looks like Mrs. Greens is gearing up for the competition.

I made a recent visit to the store and there is a major revamping of its aisles.

Word is out that Mrs. Greens is planning a new store in New Canaan.

Prepare  for an exciting holiday shopping experience.in our community: we will have so much to choose from.
