It is a California-based grocery chain known for its unique selection of private-label products, which tend to be more affordable than those found in regular grocery stores.
"Our buyers travel the world searching for products we think are exceptional and will find a following among our customers," Trader Joe's writes online. "To earn a spot on our shelves, each product is submitted to a rigorous tasting panel process, in which every aspect of quality is investigated in context of the price we can offer."
