Texas-Based Buc-Ee's to Debut First Ohio Store in April, 200-Plus Jobs
Huber Heights Mayor Jeff Gore announced on Facebook that Ohio's first Buc-ee's will open April 6 at 6 a.m.
Crews broke ground in August 2024 as the project began, but developers aimed for an end of 2025 opening faced delays from weather and a city of Huber Heights and Clark County water and sewer connection dispute.
On April 3, emergency personnel local to the Dayton area will tour the site in a first-responder preview before the public grand opening.
Construction paused in November amid legal disputes, and company attorneys say the end-of-year opening is no longer achievable; Buc-ee's General Counsel Jeff Nadalo says the site is on schedule for spring of 2026, and Gore said 'And their doors will never close after that'.
The site sits at the intersection of State Route 235 and Interstate 70, where Buc-ee's, known for large stores, clean bathrooms and a beaver mascot, will open.
