BJ's to open 2nd club in Tennessee

BJ’s Wholesale Club is adding its second location in Tennessee.

The new store is slated to open Friday in the Nashville suburb of Mt. Juliet at 181 Adams Lane. The latest store opening, which will include a BJ's gas station, will bring the Marlborough, Massachusetts-based wholesale club count to 240 across 20 states.

The opening follows BJ’s brick-and-mortar expansion into Tennessee with a new club that opened in June in La Vergne, 20 miles southeast of downtown Nashville, in Rutherford County.

“BJ’s is committed to delivering unmatched value, outstanding convenience and great products, and we are thrilled to bring this experience to our members in the Mt. Juliet community,” said Brent Jacobs, club manager of the Mt. Juliet BJ’s Wholesale Club, in a statement. “We’re excited to open in time for the holiday season, helping families save up to 25% off grocery store prices every day.”

Through Thursday, the club is offering a founding member offer for local shoppers interested in joining.

The new location features grocery essentials including a full-service deli, household essentials, pet supplies and the retailer’s signature "treasure-hunt experience" for BJ’s members. Curbside pickup, ExpressPay through BJ’s mobile app and same-day delivery will also be available.
