Stores in states such as Colorado, Florida, and Missouri are planned along with new Texas locations in Boerne, Luling, and Hillsboro.

But Wait, There's More

A month later, I posted an update to that story because news came out of yet another 70,000+ square foot Buc-ee's that was going to pop up in the Lone Star State. A new one coming to Amarillo would mark the first Buc-ee's footprint in the Texas Panhandle.

The Next New Texas Buc-ee's is Coming To...

San Marcos, Texas.

I didn't think there was any open land left along I-35 between Austin and San Antonio. But, I was wrong.

There's a 22-acre site of open grassland on the northern edge of town near Yarrington Road that will be home to a future Buc-ee's.

The big beaver sign will be high atop a 68-foot pole on the southbound side of I-35.

The San Marcos City Council has given the green light for this project to move forward.

Features of the San Marcos Buc-ee's

  • 74,000 Square Feet in size
  • 175 full-time jobs minimum, with up to 225 possible
  • Average annual wage - $43,855
  • Approximately 120 fueling stations

Once completed, the San Marcos Buc-ee's will only be a 20-mile drive away from the Buc-ee's in New Braunfels. No specific timetable for construction and completion for the San Marcos location has been released.
