BJ’s Wholesale Club Comes to Pasco County with The Marketplace at Trinity Development
Pasco County’s retail landscape is set for a major expansion as BJ’s Wholesale Club prepares to join the growing commercial corridor at The Marketplace at Trinity in Trinity, Florida. The announcement comes with submitted development plans signaling forward momentum for the long-anticipated shopping destination near SR-54 and Little Road, poised to become a new hub for retail and community services in West Pasco County.
Address & Location
The Marketplace at Trinity is planned at 8600 FL-54, Trinity, FL — a high-growth area in Pasco County just north of Pinellas and Hillsborough counties. This location offers strong visibility and access along one of the region’s busiest east-west corridors, with future traffic control enhancements planned at nearby intersections including SR-54 and Cattle Ranch Way.
Project Overview
The overall development is being referred to as The Marketplace at Trinity, and the first formal plans submitted to Pasco County were for:
- BJ’s Wholesale Club (with a fuel station), and
- The Home Depot (including a garden center).
While earlier renderings and concepts circulated for this long-discussed site, the recent submission on February 13, 2026 marks the first time specific big-box retailers have been officially filed with the county, moving the project out of planning and into actionable development.
Community Growth & Economic Impact
Trinity, an established and growing community within the New Port Richey area of Pasco County, has attracted increasing residential and commercial interest due to its strategic tri-county location and rising population. The addition of national anchors like BJ’s and Home Depot is expected to have several economic impacts:
- Job creation during construction and retail operations
- Increased consumer traffic supporting adjacent businesses
- Strengthened tax base for local services
- Enhanced shopping and service options for West Pasco residents
The site is also anticipated to include other restaurants, retail buildings, a bank, and additional users as formal plans are submitted and approved.
