This Wednesday, Feb. 26, 2020, photo shows the original Trader Joe’s grocery store in Pasadena, Calif. Joe Coulombe, the man who created Trader Joe’s markets with a vision that college-educated but poorly paid young people would buy healthy foods if they could only afford them, has died. Coulombe’s family says he died Friday, Feb. 28, 2020 at age 89. He opened the first of his quirky, nautically themed markets in Pasadena, California, in 1967. He stocked it with granola, organic foods and other items he bought directly from suppliers to hold prices down. Trader Joe’s now has more than 500 stores in over 40 states. (AP Photo/Chris Pizzello)
