Buc-ee's Richmond will occupy more than 53,300 square feet and offer approximately 120 fueling positions just outside its store with thousands of snack, meal and drink options for travelers on the go. The new travel center will also feature the same award-winning restrooms, cheap gas, quality products and excellent service that have won the hearts, trust and business of millions in the South for nearly 40 years. Buc-ee's favorites including Texas barbeque, homemade fudge, kolaches, Beaver nuggets, jerky and fresh pastries will all be available as well.
Attendees of the Buc-ee's Richmond groundbreaking ceremony will include Mayor Robert Blythe of Richmond; City Manager Rob Minerich of Richmond; Executive Director David Stipes of the Richmond Industrial Development Corporation; and members of the City of Richmond Board of Commissioners.
"We're excited to add Kentucky to our family of stores expanding throughout the Southeast," said Stan Beard of Buc-ee's. "Richmond is a vibrant city in the heart of the gorgeous Bluegrass region of the state, and we are thrilled to have this location as our first in the State of Kentucky."
Throughout the project, Buc-ee's corporate development team will work closely alongside state and local leadership. Buc-ee's Richmond will bring 200 permanent, full-time jobs to the area with great pay, full benefits, 401k and three weeks of vacation. Buc-ee's remains committed to providing a friendly, safe and fun stop for travelers everywhere.
