We first let you know the news of Wawa’s impending arrival in May of 2019. Wawa will be taking over the old Becraft Antiques location on 355, across from Gaithersburg High School at 405 S Frederick Ave. Nearly 3 years later, fencing has gone up and demolition has begun in preparation for construction at the first MoCo location for the convenience store/gas station that serves fresh and built-to-order foods, beverages, coffee, and more.
Construction for the recently opened Royal Farms location in Gaithersburg took just under one year from start to opening day, so we expect a first half of 2023 opening for Wawa if construction begins as anticipated. There have been plenty of delays, so there are no guarantees.
