Sheetz<\/a>, the Western Pennsylvania convenience store chain, is eyeing a location near Wawa’s corporate headquarters in Delaware County.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The store would be located at Wilmington Pike and Brandywine Drive in Painter’s Crossing in Chadds Ford Township, Delaware County. It would include made-to-order food and beverages, limited indoor and outdoor seating, two mobile pick-up windows (no drive-thru ordering) and six gas pumps, according to a sketch plan<\/a> application on Chadds Ford Township’s government website<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sheetz would need to get zoning approval for the store. It was listed on the agenda of a planning commission meeting<\/a> in Chadds Ford Township for Feb. 4. CBS News Philadelphia reached out to Sheetz and Chadds Ford for a comment, but we’ve yet to hear back.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The store would be the first Sheetz location in Delco, where Wawa opened its first location on MacDade Boulevard in Folsom in 1964.<\/p>\n

The location at Painter’s Crossing is about five miles from Wawa’s headquarters in Chester Heights.<\/p>\n

Last week, Sheetz opened its first location in deep Wawa territory<\/a> in Limerick, Montgomery County. The two convenience store rivals have continued to expand over the years. Coincidentally, the Sheetz store opened up right across the street from a Wawa.<\/p>\n

In 2024, Wawa began to break ground in West Virginia<\/a>, where Sheetz already operates dozens of stores.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sheetz, which is based in Altoona, Pennsylvania, operates more than 800 stores in Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, Ohio and Michigan.<\/p>\n
