3rd Detroit Area Sheetz Opening Next Week

CHESTERFIELD TOWNSHIP, MI — Sheetz is planning to open its third metro Detroit store next week.

The new store will open at 9 a.m. next Tuesday along 23 Mile Road in Chesterfield Township. It will be the first Sheetz to open outside Romulus. More than a dozen other Detroit-area stores are expected to open in 2026.

The news comes just after the Pennsylvania-based chain announced its plans to open a store in East Lansing, which would be the first location outside the Detroit area.

Overall, Sheetz wants to open 50-60 locations across Michigan over the next five to six years. They opened their first Michigan store roughly 4 miles from Detroit Metro Airport last summer.

The chain is best known for its award-winning Made-to-Order menu, which allows residents, or "Sheetz Freakz" to order any of Sheetz’s customized drinks or food items around the clock.

While many metro Detroit communities have welcomed Sheetz, some have rejected site plans after residents voiced concerns about traffic, noise and light pollution.
