• started in the 1950s. as a small chain of convenience stores, way back in 1958. They were called Pronto Markets.
• They made the stores bigger (if you can imagine), decked the walls with cedar planks and donned the crew in cool Hawaiian shirts.
• Most importantly, they started putting innovative, hard-to-find, great-tasting foods in "Trader Joe's" name. That cut our costs and saved your money.
