The brand has opened its largest outpost to date, a more than 75,000sq ft site in Luling, Texas, about an hour northeast of San Antonio.
The location replaces the city’s current Buc-ee’s, which was the brand’s first family travel centre when it was built in 2003. With the opening of the new Buc-ee’s, the company operates 50 stores across Texas and the South.
Since beginning its multi-state expansion in 2019, Buc-ee’s has opened locations in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, South Carolina, Tennessee, Missouri and Colorado. Earlier this year, Buc-ee’s broke ground on its first-ever locations in Virginia and Mississippi.
Based in Lake Jackson, Texas, Buc-ee’s is known for its smiling beaver, namesake mascot, massive locations and amenities, which range from its signature “pristine” restrooms and showers to its extensive assortment of specialty food options that include Texas barbecue. The new Buc-ee’s has more than 120 fuelling positions along with thousands of snack, meal and drink options for travellers on the go.
“We are thrilled to open the doors to the world’s largest Buc-ee’s travel centre right here in the Great State of Texas,” said Stan Beard, Director of Real Estate and Development. “It’s particularly exciting, considering this is the Buc-ee’s that started it all, so we are really looking forward to celebrating with the incredible people of Luling.”
