Wawa Wants Go Ahead to Sell Beer in Pennsylvania Store

Coffee, hoagies and beer?

Customers could soon be adding the latter to their list at Wawa if the company gets approval to add a beer aisle at one of its suburban Philadelphia stores.

The Philadelphia Inquirer reports Concord Township's board of supervisors will vote Tuesday on an application to let Wawa sell six-packs at the shop. The decision would be limited to the Delaware County shop and would also require state approval.

Wawa's entry into the Pennsylvania beer market could be a game-changer for a company already entrenched at the region's one-stop shopping destination.

Acme, Whole Foods and Wegmans already have approval to sell beer in the area.

Wawa doesn't sell beer in Pennsylvania, but does in Virginia and Florida.
