Parker's coming to Lady's Island

A new Parker’s gas station is coming to Sams Point Road on Lady’s Island as the Georgia-based local favorite continues to open new spots around the Beaufort area.

Plans are to build a 4,500-square-foot building with a convenience store and full deli along with 12 gas pumps at the intersection of Sams Point Road at Oyster Factory Road with the front of the building facing Oyster Bluff Drive.

Currently, Parker’s boasts more than 44 locations in South Carolina and Georgia and plans are to open more. The company has been included on the Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing private companies in America for the past three years.

There is no word on when construction is expected to be approved, started and completed, but knowing Parker’s, it will be open in no time at all.
