WINCHESTER, VA - Winchester presents a promising location for a Buc-ee's expansion due to its strategic position and robust infrastructure.

Located at the northern tip of the Shenandoah Valley, Winchester is well-connected by major highways, including Interstate 81 and U.S. Route 50, making it an ideal stop for travelers and commuters.

The city is a hub for regional traffic, attracting visitors heading to and from Washington, D.C., and other major cities, which aligns with Buc-ee's target market of serving highway travelers.

Areas within Winchester that could support a Buc-ee's location include the zones near I-81 exits, such as Exit 313 near the intersection of I-81 and Route 50, which already hosts a cluster of travel-oriented businesses.

Another viable option could be the commercial areas around the Winchester Gateway, which offers ample space for large-scale developments and is near high-traffic areas.

The region's growing population, steady tourism, and robust retail environment further support the feasibility of Buc-ee's establishing a location in Winchester.

The presence of other big-box retailers and travel centers in these areas indicates a strong market for Buc-ee's signature mega gas station and convenience store model, making Winchester a logical choice for the company's expansion in Virginia.
