Buc-ee’s Set to Open First Idaho Location in Meridian
Buc-ee’s, the beloved Texas-based convenience store chain, is all set to make its mark in Idaho with its first location planned for Meridian. This development comes as a surprise to some, considering earlier doubts about the state’s suitability for Buc-ee’s expansion.
Here are the key details about the upcoming Buc-ee’s in Idaho:
- Location: Meridian Road & I-84 interchange
- Size: 74,000-square-foot store with 104 fuel pumps
- Employment Potential: The store is projected to employ up to 225 people
Plans for this massive development are currently on file, hinting at an advanced stage of preparation. While the opening date remains unconfirmed, delays in other locations like Arizona and Ohio could suggest a potential opening in 2026.
This expansion aligns with Buc-ee’s strategy to target high-traffic areas across the United States. It promises to bring its famous brisket sandwiches, fresh pastries, and clean restrooms to the delight of Idahoans.
