Wawa to expand footprint in Central Pa.
Cris Collingwood//June 23, 2022
Wawa announced today it is expanding its footprint in Central Pennsylvania along the Susquehanna River.
Wawa is currently in Berks and Lancaster counties with 17 stores serving those communities for more than two decades, the company said.
Current plans are for Wawa to double its store count over the next three to five years with its first store as early as 2024, with the potential for up to 40 additional stores in Central Pennsylvania communities.
“With a commitment to fulfilling lives, we’re thrilled to continue our growth and expansion in our existing markets to provide quality fresh food, beverages and support to the community,” said John Poplawski, vice president of real estate for Wawa.
“In addition, Wawa’s continued expansion will mean even more convenience and new jobs in the Central Pennsylvania community.”
Wawa continues to open stores throughout its current markets and is set to open 54 new stores in 2022. The company said it employs on average about 40 people in each store.
