Two years ago, there were rumors that it may happen, and now it's official. Trader Joe’s is coming to Grand Rapids.

A lease was signed on Dec. 22, 2014 between representatives of Trader Joe's East Inc. and Grand Rapids-based CWD Real Estate Investment, leasing Trader Joe’s space in Kentwood. The space is located across from Centerpointe Mall on 28th Street, according to the Grand Rapids Business Journal

“Tenant shall have the right to open for business in the premises and operate therein as a retail grocery market, selling items compatible with the items offered for sale (or retail) in other retail grocery outlets operated by tenant now or in the future,” according to documents obtained by the Grand Rapids Business Journal.

There is no word yet on when the store will open, but lovers of "Two Buck Chuck" and cookiebutter across West Michigan are already rejoicing.
