Rutter’s has broken ground on its first Virginia location, which it announced in July. The new, 13,500-square-foot convenience store will be located at the intersection of Route 50 and Covestone Drive, in Winchester, Virginia. The company expects to open this new location in mid-2025, in conjunction with the development by The Meridian Group.
Rutter’s is No. 78 on CSP’s 2024 Top 202 ranking of U.S. convenience-store chains by store count.
“We’re extremely excited to open our first Virginia store in Winchester,” said Chris Hartman, vice president of fuels, advertising and development at Rutter’s. “Our whole team looks forward to serving the local community with our best-in-class Rutter’s experience.”
The new store will offer several automobile-fueling options, along with commercial fueling, and be open 24 hours a day. The store will also include Rutter’s food menu of Made For You combinations; a selection of drinks and snacks; a selection of beer, wine and canned cocktails; and more.
