It’s not just a gas station and an electric vehicle station. It’s more of a one-stop shop and soon it will be available across Michigan.
Sheetz, the Mid-Atlantic’s largest restaurant and convenience chain, just announced the grand opening date for its first Michigan location: Tuesday, August 27, at 33380 Wick Road in Romulus.
The store, which opened in March of this year, will open at 8 a.m. with a grand opening celebration planned from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.
Sheetz is currently hiring for this location. They will employ approximately 30 people, most of them full-time. You can apply here.
