"When Wawa opened its doors on April 16, 1964, our founder, Grahame Wood, imagined a place that would provide trusted quality products, convenience, and care to local friends and neighbors. Now 59 years later, Wawa associates are proud to carry out this vision by being 'Day Brighteners' in their communities each and every day," said Chris Gheysens, Wawa's Chief Executive Officer.
