T&T Supermarket to Open First U.S. Store
T&T Supermarket will open its flagship U.S. store in Bellevue, Washington, in December.
The Loblaw banner will be the largest Asian supermarket in the state of Washington, offering authentic Asian products, fresh produce, live seafood, and in-store kitchen and bakery and Asian beauty products.
The store will sell:
Made-to order street food and self-serve hot food.
More than 150 varieties of fresh baked breads and more than 50 desserts and pastries.
More than 750 types of wines and spirits, specializing in Korean soju and Japanese sake.
More than 200 T&T private-label SKUs.
Holiday gifts such as fruit boxes, toys and beauty sets.
Located at The Marketplace at Factoria, 12620 SE 41st Place, the 76,000-square-foot store opens its doors Dec. 5. Cultural performances and giveaways are planned, including $10 T&T gift cards for the first 500 customers.
"We're incredibly excited to open our doors in Bellevue and introduce U.S. shoppers to the T&T experience," Tina Lee, CEO of T&T Supermarkets, said in a media release. "From our fresh kitchen dishes to our one-of-a-kind bakery and exclusive private-label items, we aim to bring the rich flavors of Asia directly to the community. We want to be the go-to destination not only for Asian families but for anyone eager to explore new culinary traditions in the Pacific Northwest."
Two other stateside stores are in development — in Lynnwood, Washington, and San Jose, California. T&T Supermarkets operates more than 35 stores across Canada.
