“The Texas economy is strong, and companies like ours benefit greatly from the state’s low taxes, highly-supportive business environment, and positive demographic trends. Our goal is to expand our Texas portfolio to well over 100 stores in the coming years.”
Yesway also plans to expand its store portfolio to 150 stores within the next four to six weeks. The retailer signed contracts to acquire the additional stores.
