Wawa is expanding into multiple states including NC. The 1st Wawa in NC is currently under construction in Kill Devil Hills. They've announced that the initial group of stores will be in the I 95 corridor.
Wawa is infilling the gap from Virginia to Florida, expanding in the Carolinas and Georgia, mainly along the I-95 corridor and coastal regions. It is unlikely they will venture much further west, as they do not typically overlap with QuikTrip. However I am curious if they will venture into the Triangle in NC.
Also still wondering if Wegmans may still be speculated for Charlotte.
Yeah, I know. I live in NoVA. Sheetz and Royal Farms are better
Sheetz is a slightly classier QT, and Royal Farms is a cheap knockoff of Cumberland Farms.
I work up north sometimes, and Cumberland Farms has all the typical stuff, but also has self-branded dairy and tea stuff you can't get anywhere else and it's all organic non-GMO based.. I stock up for long drives there every time I see one. I think it's sourced from ME, NJ, and OH agricultural regions; which is where I work when up there.

Royal Farms is known for very good fried chicken and potato wedges and I think they may be expanding from Tidewater Virginia into the NC coastal regions.

Royal Farms is expanding into South Jersey, where they're competing with Tim Hortons and Wawa.
Wawa has now announced plans to open 80 Wawas in NC in the next 10 years.
I am curious if they will venture to the Charlotte region or remain focused on expanding in eastern NC. It seems they are looking at the I-95 corridor and the coastal regions, but perhaps Raleigh-Durham and the Triangle region could be a possibility. Typically Wawa and QuikTrip do not overlap in territory, but an alleged agreement is unconfirmed.
