Buc-ee’s targets record-breaking Florida mega-store
Buc-ee’s plans to open what it says will be the world’s largest convenience store in Fort Pierce, Florida, a 76,245-square-foot complex with 120 gas pumps, 18 electric-vehicle charging stations and more than 700 parking spaces. Construction could take about two years, with a late-2027 or early-2028 opening; officials expect the project to boost the local economy and create more than 175 jobs. Buc-ee’s already operates in Daytona Beach and St. Augustine, with Ocala planned.
