Beloved convenience store chain Wawa has opened another New Jersey location.

This newest Wawa is in Union at 1750 Route 22. It opened Thursday and offers gas as part of its fuel court, like many other Wawas throughout the state.

The chain, which is popular for its hoagies, coffee, snacks and drinks, has opened 27 of 54 planned spots nationwide in 2022.

There are two more Garden State stores set to open before year’s end: in Hamilton Township and Orange.

There are currently more than 270 Wawa locations in New Jersey and more than 900 stores throughout the East Coast.

In April, Wawa CEO Chris Gheysens told the Philadelphia Business Journal the company wants to operate about 1,800 locations by 2030 — doubling its current store count.
