QUIKTRIP BEING BUILT IN RIVER OAKS

RIVER OAKS — QuikTrip is developing a new Generation III store in River Oaks. The store will employ approximately 15 to 18 people and will feature a made-to-order barista, which serves specialty coffees, ice cream and smoothies. Construction of the QuikTrip includes demolishing the Caravan Inn, which is located on the site. The River Oaks Economic Development Corp. and River Oaks City Council recently approved a $300,000 incentive package for the new store, which is slated for a March 2013 opening.
