From their snack foods to staple canned goods, Trader Joe's is the place to find all the newest flavors. But will it ever provide a place to eat in its stores?

CBRE’s Val Achtemeier, Darla Longo and Barbara Perrier are long accustomed to winning awards and honors. After all, they are among the company’s top brokers nationwide.

The supermarket chain is known for its friendly customer service which has spawned social media rumors that workers have been trained to flirt with customers.

Also, some CHS passengers can now check their bags in the parking garage, while Trader Joe's CEO responds to talk that the chain will install self-checkout lanes in its stores.
