«Our Logo: ‘Wawa’ is a Native American word for the Canada Goose that was found in the Delaware Valley over 100 years ago. Our original Dairy farm was built on land located in a rural section of Pennsylvania called Wawa. That’s why we use the goose on Wawa’s corporate logo.»( ) Wawa is my favorite convenience store chain. So, I was pretty stoked when I found out that Wawa was coming to Suffolk. Seeing as my van was on empty today, I decided to stop by and check it out. Wawa Inc. is held as a private company since 1803 and started as a dairy business. In 1964, the first Wawa store opened as an outlet for their dairy products. Now, there are 645 convenience stores throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and Central Florida. One of the things I love about Wawa is their large, spacious parking lots – so many gas stations are cramped. This new location has plenty of parking. There are 12 pumps and I was impressed with the price of their gas. It was a cent cheaper per gallon than the other stores I frequent. The best thing about Wawa is their sandwiches. They usually have some already done, but you can also order at the counter. They’re inexpensive and pretty delicious for convenience store/fast food! This particular location is a bit smaller than most, and they don’t handle as many items on the shelves, but they still carry the most important things. Wawa is known for healthier items such as fruit and yogurt in their grab-to-go section. Welcome to Suffolk, Wawa! We are so happy you’re here.
