Big Y Foods will open two new Big Y Express Fuel and Convenience locations July 15 in Connecticut.
Located at 580 Main St. in Somers and 241 Hazard Ave. in Enfield, the stores will open as Big Y Express. These locations will bring the total number in Connecticut to six. The first Big Y Express opened in 2013 in Lee, Massachusetts.
These Big Y Express locations contain eight pumping positions each with 87, 89 and 93 octane fuel and diesel. A free air machine is available for tires. Additional amenities include its signature Wide Awake bean-to-cup coffee, as well as grab-and-go staples like milk, cold drinks and snacks.
Big Y Express is open from 5 a.m.-10 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 6 a.m.-10 p.m. on weekends.
The company is hiring for management and select part-time positions in both locations. Interested applicants may apply at bigy.com/careers. Big Y offers flexible shifts and many scheduling options.
“Big Y is the perfect working environment for those seeking flexible shifts and excellent benefits,” said Meaghan Tetreault, senior manager of employee relations and field services.
In addition to the customary 5 cents per gallon discounts, myBigY members can earn an incremental $1.50 savings per gallon based upon their grocery purchases at any Big Y market. Fuel rewards are automatically loaded to their account for use at the fuel station and applied at each pump. Additionally, Big Y’s Fleet Fuel Rewards Program saves additional time and money at any Express location.
“We are always looking to bring our customers even more, especially during these challenging times,” said Charles L. D’Amour, president and CEO. “We are excited to not only help our customers save on their fueling needs but also make life easier by offering quick convenience items that our customers can grab on the run.”
Springfield, Massachusetts-based Big Y Foods Inc. is one of the largest independently-owned supermarket chains in New England. Big Y operates locations throughout Massachusetts and Connecticut, including supermarkets, Table & Vine Fine Wines and Liquors and Big Y Express gas and convenience locations with more than 10,000 employees.
