Arch "Beaver" Aplin is the president and CEO of Buc-ee's and a co-founder. Aplin says he seeks out conservative states for new locations, and here's why…
We have a lot of opportunities. We're growing. We're building in many places, but when you find a conservative, business-friendly state with a phenomenal workforce, it makes a difference.
And I'm starting to realize life's too short to try to build in places where people don't appreciate what you're bringing, versus a place like this, where people do.
So that leadership, that concept, that idea of conservative, business-friendly, family-oriented concept works so much better if it trickles down from the very leadership. From the very top at the governor's office, at the congressman, at the senator, at the mayor, the representatives.
