T&T Supermarket Inc., the largest Asian grocery retailer in Canada, has announced plans for a second Washington location at 6218 196th St. SW., off Hwy. 99 in the northern Seattle community of Lynnwood.
The second store will be located in the Lynnwood Crossroads Shopping Center.

Last year, T&T announced its expansion to the U.S. with a store in Bellevue, Washington.
“We never stopped looking at locations [in the state] after the announcement of our flagship store,” said CEO Tina Lee.
“There’s excellent growth potential here, and although we originally planned on only committing to a second location after Bellevue opens, we just couldn’t resist this opportunity. It’s a great location in a former grocery box. At 30,000 square feet, it’s a fitting size for Lynnwood.”
Likening it to a good news-bad news situation, Lee also offered an update on the opening of the Bellevue store.
“The good news is we have signed our second location,” she said. “The bad news is our first store is delayed. Unfortunately, our electrical panel – a critical piece of equipment – is on back order. We do not have an official opening date … yet, but we are determined to open later in the year.”
