Approximately 20 Sheetz Stores to Open in Dayton, OH Over the Next Five Years
Altoona, PA (April 27, 2022) — Today Sheetz, a major Mid-Atlantic restaurant and convenience chain, announced it will expand into western Ohio by opening approximately 20 locations in Dayton over the next five years. Sheetz is currently aiming to open its first Dayton store in 2024.
Named a Best Regional Fast Food Chain by USA TODAY's 10Best Readers’ Choice travel awards, Sheetz’s locations will offer its award-winning Made-to-Order (MTO®) menu where local residents can order any of Sheetz’s customized specialty drinks or food items around the clock.
“We are thrilled to continue our growth in Ohio and bring the ultimate one-stop-shop to the residents of Dayton,” said Travis Sheetz, president and CEO of Sheetz. “Built on the values my Uncle Bob instilled when he founded Sheetz in 1952, we look forward to being a great employer and neighbor that is actively involved in the Dayton community.”
Each Sheetz location employs approximately 30 individuals. Earlier this month, Sheetz was ranked 33rd on the Fortune 100 Best Companies to Work For list. The recognition follows Sheetz’s recent investment of over $70 million in store employee wages in 2021 as well as an investment doubling the tuition assistance offered to employees through the company’s College Tuition Reimbursement program.
Sheetz offers competitive pay and benefits packages to all employees, including medical and dental insurance, a 401(k) retirement plan, an employee stock ownership plan, flexible schedules, opportunities for advancement, quarterly bonuses, vacation time and more. Sheetz also offers 12 weeks of fully paid time off for new mothers and two weeks of fully paid time off for partners.
Selected as one of the “50 Companies That Care” in 2020 by PEOPLE Magazine and Great Place to Work®, Sheetz is also committed to supporting the local communities it serves through several charitable organizations and activities. This includes support for the Special Olympics, weekly food donations to local food banks and Sheetz For the Kidz®, an employee-driven non-profit organization which makes the holiday season brighter for nearly 10,000 children each year.
In April 2021, Sheetz officially opened its first store in the Columbus, OH market. Sheetz currently operates 56 locations in Ohio, with an overall store count of 647 across its six state footprint, which includes Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Ohio and Maryland. All locations are open 24/7, 365 days a year.
