I like the model he created to "detect" the warehouses, but it's much easier to see the corporations via the state corporation agency. There is also the idea that They wouldn't have pure warehouses for everything and are direct white labeled direct from manufacturers.

I'm sure many of the Trader Joe's store brand products are white label. It seems inefficient to have such a wide range of frozen products that are constantly changing. They simply find a frozen pasta dish manufacturer that abides by whatever quality guidelines and just change the label.

Another possibility is that trader Joe's does actually manufacturer a lot of their rotating products but just simply rotates the store that receive them so they don't need to have a massive production for something so small.
