I've not seen Buccees create development near them. It's a one stop kind of place and their business plan puts them just outside cities or towns where it will be an easy on and off the interstate. I'm trying, but I can't think of lots of developments that jumped up around a Buccees.
6-8 years ago the Buccees in Terral TX was about the only thing on that exit. Now there is like 3 hotels, a Lowes, a movie theater, a Longhorn Steakhouse, a Chick Fil A, a Whataburger, a Starbucks, a Canes, a Freddy's Burgers, and even more than that with new buildings still being built.

Buccees needs to capitalize on the EV movement and add charging stations, develop some home away from home/hotel spaces while you wait for your EV to charge. You can spend the night in a beaver themed hotel room.
There is green to be made with green technology.

That's interesting, because the ones I drive past on I-10 and around Houston aren't like that at all. Maybe because they really were there so long. For example, the Luling one. It was one of the first and one of the largest for a long time and there is still nothing there.
I haven't driven that stretch of I-20 in 30 years. However, I would guess that the growth isn't strictly because of Buccees. Terrell is a growing town and the Buccees was the direction of it's growth.
