ALTOONA, Pa., Sept. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Sheetz announced today it will close the store located at 700 Potomac Avenue in Hagerstown, Maryland on September 30, 2014. Store associates from this location will be retained and relocated to one of the other eight existing stores in the Hagerstown area.

This closing is consistent with our plan of utilizing our resources in our most productive locations."
