## Resource

Buc-ee’s is finally hitting Louisiana with two massive new locations—one in Ruston opening mid-2027 and another in Lafayette slated for early 2028. The Ruston site, over 70,000 sq ft with 100+ pumps, is already under construction, while Lafayette’s slightly larger location faces delays due to design tweaks and weather. These aren’t just gas stations—they’re full-service travel hubs expected to pump in revenue, create hundreds of jobs, and draw thousands daily, reshaping local economies across both cities.
