Almost Wordless Sunday - Trader Joe’s Katy TX

 

Katy has several choices for folks to choose from when they are looking to buy groceries as it has become a very competitive market place. Trader Joe’s opened in Katy some months ago and we have shopped there since the store opened. I believe they set the standard for service and quality. I actually like to shop there as it has become my own go to store for many items. The people who work there are very pleasant and actually are helpful when you need assistance. I like the freshness of their stock and most of the food items are organic and or natural. I think the picture below says a lot about Trader Joe’s and they will take something back without any problems at all.

 

It is my opinion HEB store on Fry Road by our home could learn a lot by sending some of their management and workers to Trader Joe’s to learn how to provide excellent service and be nice to their clientele. I go out of way to avoid having to shop at this store. Everything is a hassle from the parking, finding things, dealing with their unhelpful staff, spoiled food, etc.. .

 

The Katy Location is at 2717 Commercial Center Blvd Katy TX 77494 and is in the back side of La Centerra at Cinco Ranch.

Bob TJ Corporate Spirit is consistent across the country....I do not care where and which store you go in you get the same knowledgeable customer service....I could never work in a store like that there are so many rude shoppers here in LA and these guys are just amazing the personality, the training and the pleasant demeanor...Kudos to TJ's, Endre

I'm glad you like your Trader Joe's.  There was just a study that came out that said you can ask a higher price for your home if it's near a Trader Joe's.  P.S.  Don't drink the wine.  2 Buck Chuck is full of arsenic.

Bob,

We rave about our Trader Joes, and were among the first to shop at the first store in LA.  Endre Barath, Jr. is right.  I have been to TJ in Arizona, all parts of CA, and their workers are all great.  They will gladly take back anything you did not like including wine.  

NO PROBLEM with anything as far as they are concerned.  We have learned that each store operates in an autonomous way and they have general rules.  They do select what they want to sell in each store.  So when an avocado farmer came by with a huge truckload a few years ago, they bought local and paid him with cash, and it was in the store within an hour or two...We are raving fans.

Many businesses could learn a valuable lesson from Trader Joe regarding outstanding customer service.

Good luck and success.

If a business doesn't have good customer service, it must sustain itself some how... maybe it has really cheap prices?

You are lucky to have a Trader Joes, Robert. We don't have one anywhere even remotely close to me.

I love Trader Joes, especially their Green Chili Burritos in the freezer section.  I have one of their stores up the road about 4 miles.

Nice shout out for the Katy Trader Joes. Another advantage of those stores - they had a lot of single serving foods, which is great for those times when you're only cooking for one (or several picky people).

Hi Bob.  I must confess that I've never been to shop at a Trader Joe's.  Though, I would love to have one close by to try out.

I wish we had a Trader Joe's on Maui because I hear all these great things about them.  Maybe soon, as it seems we are in store for a lot of new commercial buildings.
