Grenada getting new gas station off Interstate 55
SUMMARY: A national gas station and convenience store chain, Quick Trip, is set to open a location in Grenada, Mississippi, strategically located near Interstate 55 and across from Walmart. This new establishment, larger than typical Quick Trip stores, aims to serve as a convenient stop for travelers between Jackson and Memphis. The opening is expected to revitalize a previously vacant site, enhancing the area and attracting more visitors to the community. The project will also generate new construction and permanent jobs. While a precise completion timeline hasn’t been announced, local officials believe Quick Trip will be a valuable asset to Grenada.
