Here's How To Request A Trader Joe's In Mendham Or Chester

CHESTER, NJ — We asked you what businesses you think the Mendham and Chester area needs, and you had a lot of opinions, some more realistic than others. Some of you said you wanted a book store, a cafe, or a Dunkin Donuts.

But one of the most common requests was for a grocery store— specifically, you want a Trader Joe's in town.

Currently, Mendham and Chester area residents have to drive to Florham Park or Westfield for their Trader Joe's fix, a nuisance when you only need one thing to finish making dinner.

You've made your voice clear to Patch, but how can you get Trader Joe's to listen? It's easy: they have a dedicated request form on their website to take location requests.

Just fill out your contact information and where you'd like to see the new store.

"There are no guarantees, but being wanted matters to us," the store says on it's form. Patch has reached out to Trader Joe's for more information on how they use this form when looking for new store locations.

Who knows? Maybe Mendham or Chester will be next in line for the tropical grocery store.
