The nearest Buc-ee’s is 16 miles from the Beaver’s Mini Mart location in the middle of a city that has been using beaver iconography for decades via school mascots, team logos, business advertisements and more. The small convenience store has no gas pumps, no public bathrooms, and a logo that looks nothing similar.
Many want to help support this small business. Here are a few ways to do so:
- Shop at their store – 1592 Hanes Road, Beavercreek, 45434
- Support their GoFundMe
- Buy Beaver Mini Mart shirts from CincyShirts.com
- Buy Beaver Mini Mart Cookies from The Original Goodie Shop. Stop by their store at 2116 Tremont Center, Upper Arlington, 43221 or call 614-488-8777
- Buy Beaver’s Mini Mart merch from Teepublic
Please note, there is a lot of misinformation going around about the ownership of the Beaver’s Mini Mart. We ask that you do your due dilligence and your own research before forming your opinion, or having a negative reaction to their plight.
