A new Wawa has officially opened at the intersection of Bayshore Road and Coon Road in North Fort Myers, introducing a feature that’s still uncommon in Southwest Florida—a drive-thru.

The newly completed location includes a 5,915-square-foot convenience store, a 7,906-square-foot fuel canopy, fueling stations, parking, and a drive-thru designed to give customers another option for grabbing food and drinks without leaving their vehicle.

Why It Matters

Wawa has rapidly expanded across Florida, but this location stands out by offering a drive-thru adding another layer of convenience for customers.

As Lee County continues to grow, national retailers are investing in newer store formats that prioritize speed, accessibility, and changing consumer habits. Features like drive-thrus can also increase traffic and influence how future convenience stores are designed throughout the region.

Market Takeaway

Commercial development isn’t just about new buildings it’s also about how businesses evolve to meet demand. This new Wawa reflects a broader trend of retailers investing in larger, more efficient locations that better serve Southwest Florida’s growing population.
