Wawa opened the doors to its first Georgia store on November 14, with plans to open two more locations in the state before the end of 2024. The stores will be located in Bainbridge, Brunswick and Jesup.

“It’s official—Wawa is opening our doors to serve our newest friends and neighbors in Georgia!” said Brian Schaller, president of Wawa. “We are thrilled to open three stores this year to bring our investment in Georgia to life. … Over the next few years, we will be continuing to expand and invest in the region as we build new stores and connect with new customers in more Georgia communities.”

Wawa stated that in 2025, the company will open five to six additional stores in Hinesville, Pooler, Waycross, Valdosta and Albany. Over the next five to eight years, Wawa plans to build and open more than 26 stores in Georgia, at the pace of around three to four stores per year.
