A ribbon cutting has been held for the newest business in Bridgman. Casey’s Gas Station and Convenience Store, a national chain, has opened its second location in Michigan along Red Arrow Highway at I-94. The new location of Casey’s, which is known for its pizza, has been about two years in the making. Southwest Michigan Regional Chamber President Arthur Havlicek tells us there’s momentum for new development in town.
“Bridgman just completed some zoning and ordinance changes in the Red Arrow Corridor right here, making it very advantageous for a business like Casey’s to locate,” Havlicek said. “We expect Casey’s to be something of a catalyst that spurs more development along this corridor in the near future.”
Casey’s has more than 2,400 locations across 16 states. Bridgman City Manager Juan Ganum says the location in town was designed to meet the needs of the community, and it’s hoped more developments will be coming to Red Arrow Highway at I-94 in town.
