LANCASTER, Ohio ( WCMH ) — Convenience store chain Sheetz is continuing its expansion into Ohio with another Columbus-area gas station.
The chain’s newest location opened in late July at 1748 N. Memorial Drive in Lancaster, the chain announced. The opening comes after the brand also launched a new convenience store and gas station on a previously wooded lot at 4881 Roberts Road near Hilliard.
The Pennsylvania-based gas station chain announced its expansion into central Ohio in 2019, with the first location open at 710 Sunbury Road in Delaware in April 2021 and thirteen additional locations open in the following months. Sheetz said they plan to open a dozen new stores annually in the Columbus area through 2025.

A new Sheetz gas station is also coming to Gahanna after a real state group’s third proposal was approval. Plans call for the location to be built on the southern portion of the 2.9-acre lot at 530 Tech Center Drive, with a drive-thru and six fuel pumps covered by a canopy. The plot is currently undeveloped.
