Forney, TX - March 26, 2023 - The anticipated BJs Wholesale Club location at the intersection of Hwy 80 and Gateway Blvd has taken a significant step forward by applying to build a retail gas station on the premises. This project, which is part of the broader development of the wholesale club, is expected to enhance convenience for local residents.
Background: BJs Wholesale Club Coming to Forney
The new retail gasoline station will be located at 11160 E. US Hwy 80, Forney, TX 75126. The facility will cover an area of 8,400 square feet and is estimated to cost around $950,000 to build. The project involves the installation of a new gas station that will feature an employee-only attendant kiosk, an overhead canopy, and underground storage tanks, along with all necessary fuel system equipment.
BJs Wholesale Club, headquartered in Marlborough, Massachusetts, is well-known for providing a wide range of products at competitive prices. Allen Stein, the contact person for the project, is working closely with the design firm, Stantec Consulting Services, Inc., based in Overland Park, Kansas. Together, they aim to ensure that the new gas station meets the growing needs of the community.
The construction is set to begin on September 15, 2025, with a projected completion date of February 28, 2026. This development is expected to not only benefit BJs Wholesale Club but also to provide additional services to the residents of Forney, enhancing the overall shopping experience.
Both Costco and BJs offering retail gas should further put downward pressure on local prices.
