Big things are happening in Daytona Beach — and one of the most talked-about additions is the long-awaited arrival of Trader Joe’s, opening November 14 at Tomoka Town Center.
For years, we have made the drive to Winter Park or Jacksonville to stock up on Trader Joe’s cult favorites, from Everything But the Bagel seasoning to frozen orange chicken and $4 wine. Now, the wait is finally over.
Trader Joe’s Makes Its Daytona Beach Debut
Construction crews have been hard at work transforming the corner of Cornerstone Boulevard and Tomoka Town Center Drive into what’s expected to be one of the busiest new retail destinations in the area.
The store officially opens Thursday, November 14, and residents are already buzzing. Expect the same signature Trader Joe’s charm - tropical murals, cheerful crew members in Hawaiian shirts, and a curated mix of specialty items, ready-to-eat meals, and affordable organics.
Beyond groceries, the store’s arrival represents something bigger: continued growth and investment in the Daytona Beach area. Tomoka Town Center has rapidly become a lifestyle hub, home to favorites like Dave & Buster’s, Academy Sports, and Buc-ee’s just across the road. Trader Joe’s adds another layer of convenience, and a little national name recognition to match.
Sprouts Farmers Market Joins the Lineup
And the grocery growth doesn’t stop there. Sprouts Farmers Market is also on its way, bringing its signature selection of fresh produce, supplements, and health-conscious products to Williamson Boulevard near LPGA.
Sprouts is known for its open-air farmers market layout and focus on natural and organic foods. Between Trader Joe’s and Sprouts, local shoppers will soon have two premium grocery options within minutes of each other, a huge win for health-minded residents who love convenience and variety.
A Growing Lifestyle Corridor
This corner of Daytona Beach is shaping up to be one of the most dynamic retail and residential areas in Central Florida. Between the new grocery stores, planned restaurants, and easy access to I-95, LPGA, and Granada, it’s no surprise that nearby neighborhoods like Mosaic, LPGA International, and Breakaway Trails are drawing attention from homebuyers who want to be close to the action.
Add in the growing list of new businesses, from ALDI’s renovation of the former Winn-Dixie in Ormond Beach to the upcoming reopening of Billy’s Tap Room, and it’s clear Daytona Beach is in the middle of a major lifestyle glow-up.
What It Means for the Community
More retail means more convenience, more dining choices, and more reasons to shop local. For residents, it’s one less drive out of town, and a sign that national retailers are recognizing the area’s growing appeal.
From grocery runs to weekend plans, the west side of town is quickly becoming a go-to destination for foodies, families, and anyone who loves seeing the community thrive.
