OH: Buc-ee's to Break Ground on New Travel Center in Huber Heights, Creating at Least 200 Full-Time Jobs

Jul 31, 2024

Buc-ee’s will break ground on a new travel center in Huber Heights, Ohio, on August 8, with a start-of-construction ceremony attended by local leaders. It will be the first Buc-ee’s location in Ohio.

Buc-ee’s Huber Heights will occupy 74,000-square-feet and offer 100 fueling positions and 24 EV charging stations. Buc-ee’s favorites, including Texas barbeque, homemade fudge, kolaches, Beaver Nuggets, jerky and fresh pastries, will all be available. Visitors will find thousands of snack, meal and drink options, as well as the same award-winning restrooms, cheap gas, quality products and excellent service that have won the hearts, trust and business of millions for over 40 years.

Attendees of the Buc-ee’s Huber Heights groundbreaking ceremony will include state and local leaders, including Huber Heights Mayor Jeff Gore.

Founded in Texas in 1982, Buc-ee’s operates 50 stores in total. Since beginning its multi-state expansion in 2019, Buc-ee’s has opened travel centers in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, South Carolina, Tennessee, Missouri, and Colorado. Buc-ee’s broke ground on the first Virginia and Mississippi locations earlier this year.

“Huber Heights is the perfect spot for our first Ohio store,” said Stan Beard of Buc-ee’s. “It’s a beautiful stretch of I-70 between Columbus and Indianapolis and we are excited to be a part of this community.”

Throughout the project, Buc-ee’s corporate development team will continue to work closely with local partners. Buc-ee’s Huber Heights will bring at least 200 full-time jobs to the area, with starting pay beginning well above minimum wage, full benefits, a 6% matching 401k, and three weeks of paid vacation.
