Wawa to Open 7th Store in Metro Orlando

 

Wawa today announced the first of several grand openings to come in the new year with its 7th store in the state of Florida! To mark the occasion, Wawa will hold a grand opening celebration on Wednesday, January 9, at 10AM at the new store located at 1615 South Orange Blossom Trail in Apopka, Florida 32703. Last year, Wawa officially entered the Florida market with the opening of six stores in the greater Orlando area. The grand opening of its 7th store will launch a year of continued expansion into the State of Florida—which includes the February entry into the Tampa Bay area; and an estimated 25 grand openings between the Orlando and Tampa Bay markets.

During the grand opening event, local officials, members of the Second Harvest Food Bank, local heroes and community members will participate in a ribbon cutting ceremony, the crowd will sample Wawa products and witness a charitable hoagie building competition featuring the Apopka Police Department and the Apopka Fire & Rescue.

“2013 will be an extremely exciting year for all of us at Wawa as we continue to grow and expand aggressively into the Sunshine State,” said Wawa President & CEO Chris Gheysens. “We are so glad to be a part of the Orlando community, adding hundreds of new associates to the Wawa family and serving our new Florida friends and neighbors with our fresh and inviting food service offer.”
