Daily News | Wawa goes west: The convenience chain is eyeing locations in Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana
As it spreads geographically, Wawa has tweaked its mid-Atlantic formula. In Florida the company installed more outdoor seating and added local specialities including pastelillos , black beans and Cubano sandwiches .But what could it add that is special to the Midwest?
Dave McCoy, a retired newspaper editor, Cincinnati native, and descendant of the feuding McCoy clan from the nearby Appalachians, notes the Ohio Valley is full of food specialties that may fly under the national radar but would be welcome if well-made and Wawa-available. Other regional favorites include bratwurst; deep-fried pork loin sandwiches; pawpaws, a native mango-like fruit, highly perishable but readily blended into baked goods and milkshakes; and goetta, a Midwestern scrapple made with the parts of the cow or pig you don’t see in supermarket cases, plus oats, instead of Lancaster-style cornmeal., Wawa still doesn’t offer scrapple, which is trickier to grill than sausage and might not lend itself to off-site, centralized preparation..
The company says it employs more than 35,000; Forbes estimates sales at $15 billion last year and growing rapidly. Employees and outsiders hold a minority of private shares.
