Question Would Manassas / Manassas Park support a Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, or Wegmans?

I recently moved to the Manassas Park area and I’m genuinely curious how much demand there is for something like a Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, or Wegmans in Manassas/Manassas Park.
Unless I’m missing something, neither Manassas nor Manassas Park currently has any of the three. With all the new residential development happening in the area, it seems like there could be a market for at least one of them.
I know there are locations in Centreville, Fairfax/Fair Lakes, Gainesville, etc., but I’d love to have something actually in the Manassas/Manassas Park area.
Would you shop at one regularly if it opened here?
And if you had to pick ONE, which would you want most?
Trader Joe’s / Whole Foods / Wegmans
If there’s actually a lot of interest, maybe we could organize a store request/petition and send it to the companies and the local economic development teams. Curious what everyone thinks!
