Buc-ee’s will open its fourth Alabama travel center in Auburn on April 10.

The company announced its newest location will open at 6 a.m., with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at 9:30 a.m. Auburn Mayor Ron Anders and other local officials are expected to attend.

Located at 2500 Buc-ee’s Boulevard off Interstate 85′s Exit 50, Buc-ee’s Auburn has more than 53,470 square feet and 120 gas pumps. The store will employ 200 people, serving up barbeque, fudge, kolaches, Beaver Nuggets, jerky and other goodies.

The $45 million travel center broke ground in November 2021 with a projected opening date of one year later.

Buc-ee’s is expected to generate up to $2.6 million in revenue annually for Auburn in city taxes.

The Texas-based gas and snack paradise’s latest Alabama stop joins locations in Leeds, Robertsdale and Athens, which opened in November.

“Our partnership with Alabama couldn’t be stronger, and Auburn is the perfect place for a Buc-ee’s,” Stan Beard, the company’s director of real estate said. “The home of the Tigers is ideally located along I-85, making it the perfect stop for travelers headed to Georgia or down to the Alabama Gulf Coast. We can’t wait to become even more involved in this beautiful community.”

Buc-ee’s operates 45 stores across the South, with locations in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, South Carolina and Tennessee.

The company recently broke ground in Colorado and Missouri, with its first Virginia location announced this month.
