Bring Trader Joe's to Lynchburg, VA

The Issue

Trader Joe's has always been delicious and affordable, making it my go-to store for quality groceries. 

  Unfortunately, Lynchburg, VA lacks a location of its own, and TJ enjoyers like myself are left with traveling to Charlottesville or Richmond to get our favorite items. It is extremely inconvenient for myself, for families, and for senior citizens and many would-be loyal TJ patrons are unable to afford the time, effort, or money to make such a trip.

  By establishing a Trader Joe's here, not only would it allow ease-of-access of current customers, but also stimulate the local economy.

Statistically, regions with Trader Joe's show increased economic activity. They attract consumers from neighboring areas, boosting local economic growth. It’s time for Lynchburg to benefit from such economic vibrancy and gain access to an array of affordable, fantastic tasting goods.

By signing this petition, you are supporting community growth and shared prosperity within Lynchburg. Let’s show Trader Joe’s that our community is ready and eager for their presence. Sign now and help us bring Trader Joe’s to Lynchburg, making quality groceries accessible to all.

THE PLAN:

Once we have gained enough signatures, we will bring proof of support to the appropriate channels, and demonstrate our interest in having our own location.
