Wawa is closing another Philadelphia location, marking its third closure in the city this year. The store, located at 33 S. 16th St. and spanning 3,000 square feet, will shut down on Monday. In an emailed statement to the Business Journal, Wawa spokesperson Lori Bruce explained that the store’s smaller size made it difficult to deliver the full Wawa experience and offerings that customers expect.

The 16th and Ranstead location, which opened in 2020, was part of a pilot program testing a compact, urban retail format with features like a walk-up window. According to the “site submission” page on Wawa’s website, the company typically prioritizes opening locations ranging from 4,000 to 6,000 square feet.
