Where Buc-ee's stores are located
All operating Buc-ee's stores are in the Southeastern U.S., with major concentrations in Texas and Tennessee. Locations are typically near interstate highways, travel plazas, or urban commercial zones, aligning with the brand's focus on road-trip convenience and large-format retail. The chain has not announced stores in the Midwest, Mountain West, or Pacific Northwest as of 2024.
How Buc-ee's is expanding
Buc-ee's frequently mentions growth in earnings calls and press releases, emphasizing new store pipelines in states where it already operates. The company generally announces new locations only after securing leases and permits, which means public plans can lag behind actual construction timelines. Because of this, the number of stores in the USA may increase significantly in the coming years, but precise timelines and locations are not disclosed publicly until later stages.
How to check for new openings
