QuikTrip Grand Opening in Charlotte, NC!

Yesterday morning around 4 am, long before the birds began chirping and waking up the world, Chris Smith showed up early to make sure everything was in order for the 6 am Grand Opening of the QuikTrip in Concord, NC.  When Scott Hinson and Bill DuBois arrived everything was fully lit up and crawling with QuikTrip staff ready to open their doors for the first time.  Dave Hipp, the Construction Manager for QuikTrip, gave Bill the grand tour upon arriving. Bill described what he saw as pure perfection and he was blown away!  The project, which is a high-end convenience store, was completed in 26 weeks - the fastest of all 13 stores that have been built in the Charlotte market. Chris Smith and Scott Hinson put in an incredible amount of hours, and as a result, planked the WT DuBois flag on the QT moon. QT has an aggressive development plan over the next four years and WTD is smack dab in the middle of it. A very big thanks to Chris Smith and Scott Hinson for an amazing job well done.  WT DuBois just broke ground on the QuikTrip in Rock Hill and is also bidding their second Concord, NC location!  We are so excited to be working with QuikTrip, and are anxious to see what our future holds together!
