LaPlace just scored a fresh discount destination. TJ Maxx officially opened its doors Thursday at 1428 W. Airline Highway, with parish officials on hand for a ceremonial ribbon cutting. The new store brings brand-name fashion, home décor, beauty products and accessories to St. John the Baptist Parish, along with a promised batch of local retail jobs.
Parish Posts Ribbon-Cutting Photos
St. John the Baptist Parish marked the grand opening with photos and a note on Facebook celebrating the ribbon cutting and the arrival of TJ Maxx as a boost for both shopping options and employment in the parish, according to St. John the Baptist Parish. The parish post lists the LaPlace address and daily hours as Monday through Sunday, 9:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m., and includes a contact number at 985-239-7337.
Store Specs From TJ Maxx
The retailer's official store page confirms the LaPlace location at 1428 W. Airline Hwy and repeats the regular hours and local phone number, while also noting a special grand-opening schedule on Thursday, per TJ Maxx. The LaPlace site offers the chain's typical mix of brand-name apparel, home décor, beauty items and accessories.
Part Of A Broader Expansion Wave
The LaPlace debut is one of several TJX Companies openings rolling out this month, with a roundup of new TJ Maxx, Marshalls and HomeGoods stores that includes the LaPlace location appearing at Cheapism. On the jobs front, local hiring notices and job listings tied to the 70084 area on sites such as Indeed show the company recruiting staff for the new store.
What Shoppers Can Expect Inside
According to TJ Maxx, customers can expect the chain's familiar "treasure-hunt" style of shopping, with rotating designer and brand-name bargains alongside home goods. The extended evening hours highlighted in the parish's opening-day post are intended to give LaPlace residents more flexibility to browse for deals after work. For now, the new store joins other retailers along Airline Highway and gives the community another off-price shopping option.
