Here's the situation: Clearwater, Belleair and Dunedin needs Trader Joe's in Clearwater, FL.

Here's the data: In Clearwater, we have two main options for a grocery store with a wide variety of healthy, organic foods: Nature's Food Patch and Whole Foods. Both are good options, but are very expensive. Trader Joe's provides the best of both worlds with quality, healthy foods and reasonable prices. There is a HUGE market for this in Clearwater and the surrounding areas (Belleair and Dunedin).

Speaking of Belleair and Dunedin, only have Whole Foods as their health foods store option. The closest Whole Foods is a 40 minute round-trip from Belleair and while it's a short distance from Dunedin, it is the most expensive option.

The only Trader Joe's near Clearwater, Belleair and Dunedin are in Tampa and St. Petersburg, which both locations are too far for a normal commute. It is a 1-hour round trip drive from Clearwater, and even longer for Belleair and Dunedin.

Clearwater, Belleair and Dunedin are pretty affluent areas and Trader Joe's would no doubt get a lot of business being in Clearwater. Not to mention the millions of visitors to Clearwater and Clearwater Beach annually. You can find the detailed 2016 Visitor Profile here.
