A property in east Ocala where the city’s first Wawa opened in 2019 was just sold for $5 million.
The 2.58-acre parcel located at 3601 East Silver Springs Boulevard was sold by GH & G/ALL Dreams Silver Springs LLC to AAA Euro Group Investment, LLC, for $5,000,000 on Tuesday, April 28.
According to state corporate records, AAA Euro Group Investment, LLC, is registered to Avni Alla, who owns and operates European Marble & Granite in Orlando.
Positioned at the intersection of East Silver Springs Boulevard and NE 36th Avenue, the site features the city’s first Wawa. The Pennsylvania-based company broke ground for that location in 2018.
