Top 8 Convenience Store Projects in 2022

For modern convenience store projects, fiber cement cladding offers architects and developers a plethora of options to ensure their buildings are protected from the elements, highly durable and full of style that’s on par with 2022 siding trends.

When it comes to commercial cladding, you want a partner you can trust. Look no farther than Nichiha’s commercial siding for a building material that offers superior quality and longevity. Take a look below at some of our successful commercial cladding projects in the convenience store space for inspiration. 

1. Wawa Convenience Store

Wawa is an American chain of convenience stores and gas stations located along the East Coast of the United States, operating in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, Washington, D.C. and Florida. 

With the infamous red logo and a white Canadian goose, Wawa needed an exterior cladding supplier who could elevate their brand while preserving the familiarity of the staple establishment to keep them in the running as one of the top convenience retailers on the East Coast and one of the most recognizable in the country. That’s why they chose Nichiha.

Our dedicated reps worked with Wawa and were there for them every step of the way in choosing the perfect cladding solutions. Wawa chose our VintageWood cladding, and this helped Wawa achieve the refined look of wood without all the maintenance. The cedar color adds warmth to the other cool materials and is ideal for use in both modern and rustic designs.

2. Speedway Convenience Store

Speedway serves over two million customers a day. To do that, they need to attract daily visitors with a familiar, welcoming exterior that stands out in a highly competitive market. We offer a variety of textures and finishes to allow commercial clients like Speedway to step up their cladding game and build their brand.

Speedy Cafe is a place for convenience food inside select Speedway stations, offering a variety of freshly made food and beverages. Just like with their parent brand, Speedy Cafe chose to partner with our exterior siding experts to complete their design. They decided to stand out with our PlymouthBrick series.

This series offers stately good looks by showcasing a kiln-fired brick appeal. Authentic brick is expensive and extremely hard to install. Here at Nichiha, we make it easy by offering the aesthetic of brick without all the work. There are plenty of color variations and grout for depth.

4. Circle K Convenience Store

Circle K is a top convenience store nationwide and to create eye-catching accents with different textures, they utilized our VintageWood cladding in Cedar, our Illumination series and the Ledgestone solution from the KuraStone series.

This creates a rugged sophistication that’s still modern and works on interior or exterior designs. The Ledgestone siding has a straight-forward installation method, a built-in rainscreen and is available in the color Buff. 

5. 7 Eleven Convenience Store

7 Eleven is an iconic brand and it needed support in redesigning its exterior. Our team came prepared with in-house technical design support for architects and general contractors to make sure all products were specified correctly while staying within budget. Once the materials are delivered, our technicians take over for onsite job startup training.

7 Eleven went with our CanyonBrick and VintageBrick solutions. Together, they give the distinguished look of brick without the extra labor. Gray and brown tones help create an inviting, earthy palette and the uneven surface and grout lines offer natural appeal.

6. Dash In Convenience Store

Dash In convenience wanted to take control of their exterior design so they showcased their logo on our VintageWood series surrounded by brick. This mixed-and-matched creation was far more easily installed than brick— our installation process at Nichiha is fast, simple and requires only one type of installer. This means no specialized trade labor or tools are needed.
