From Miriam Valverde at the Sun Sentinel: "Wawa plans 120 stores in South Florida"

WaWa is a hugely popular convenience store in the Northeast. Soon you'll be seeing them, hopefully, with locations here in Palm Beach County. They use cutting edge technology and their customers are thrilled with their service. Stay tuned; you'll be hearing a lot more about this in the coming months. Here is an excerpt from the article in the Sun Sentinel:
     You wanted Wawa, and you're about to get a lot of it.
     The popular convenience store chain announced Monday that it plans 120 or more stores in South Florida between 2017 and 2022. The first ones will open in Palm Beach and Broward counties, with Miami-Dade County to follow in 2018.
     "Our plan was always to have a presence across most of the state," Chris Gheysens, Wawa's president and chief executive, told about 100 civic leaders Monday during an announcement at the Perez Art Museum in Miami.
