Sheetz expands into Indiana

Pittsburgh-area drivers heading west to the state of Indiana could quickly see a well-recognized brand on the fuel pump.

Sheetz introduced Tuesday that the corporate is increasing into Indiana, because the Pennsylvania-based comfort retailer and fuel station chain continues its push into the Midwest.

The Altoona-based chain, identified for its made-to-order meals, plans to open its first retailer within the higher Indianapolis space in 2027, with about 100 places anticipated statewide over the subsequent decade.

“Over the past several years, we have received a significant number of inquiries from Indiana residents who want to see Sheetz in their communities,” mentioned Travis Sheetz, president and CEO in a information launch.

Details on the precise places and timeframe for the primary location’s opening haven’t been launched.
