B-Quik is in the process of constructing its fourth local store next to the Benny’s car wash on Lee Drive. The plan is to have the 5,000-square-foot convenience store up and running by the end of the year, according to Justin Alford, who is a co-owner of Benny’s and B-Quik. This new store will be similar to the B-Quik location on Perkins Road, but will include self-service checkouts and an expanded drink cooler. Additionally, there will be six gas pumps available and special discounts offered to members of the Benny’s car wash club.
When the store is operational, it is expected that around 30 to 35 employees will be working at the station. Guy Hopkins Construction has been hired as the general contractor for the project.
