Cedar Park’s new Trader Joe’s grocery store is set to break ground this January, according to a filing with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation.

The TDLR filing shows that the $5.7 million development is slated to begin construction Jan 1, with an estimated completion date of October 2027. At present, there is no firm timeline for when the store will open.

The background

The highly anticipated new development has been in the works since late 2024. In March, Cedar Park City Council approved a rezoning measure to allow the 12,166-square-foot grocery store to be constructed at the southwest corner of East Whitestone Boulevard and Arrow Point Drive.

Trader Joe’s will be the anchor store for a 64,000-square-foot mixed-use commercial development, which has also been zoned for warehouse, office and storage space, according to Cedar Park city documents.


Zooming Out

The Cedar Park location will be the fifth Trader Joe’s in the Austin metro, following locations in Downtown Austin, Bee Cave, Rollingwood and The Arboretum.
