About 100 shuttered Wawa stores have reopened over the past 24 hours, the convenience store chain said Wednesday, leaving only 81 of the company's 601 locations off-line due to storm-related problems.
Most of the affected stores were in central and South Jersey, and a few in the Montgomery County area, spokeswoman Lori Bruce reported around lunchtime. Power outages forced the closure of several hundred Wawas as Hurricane Sandy slammed the New Jersey coast.
"Once power is restored, our teams will move quickly to restock and open the stores to serve the community," Bruce said.
