There’s a line outside the door before it opens on this first day of business for Trader Joe’s in Tulsa. Among the first in line is Sharon, formerly from L.A. and an experienced Trader Joe’s customer. She says she lived in L.A. for 28 years and frequently shopped at the specialty grocer. She and friends are glad to see one open in Tulsa.
Well known in other parts of the country as a popular specialty grocery, the Tulsa Trader Joe’s in Brookside is the first to open in Oklahoma. A Costco is scheduled to open in Tulsa in April.
