Strategically located at the signalized intersection of Hwy 111 and Evan Hewes Highway, this 9.5-acre parcel offers exceptional visibility and access just north of Interstate 8 and the Calexico East Port of Entry. Zoned M-1-U Light Industrial within Imperial County and the City of El Centro’s Sphere of Influence, the site supports a wide range of industrial and commercial uses including truck fueling, warehousing, manufacturing, and contractor storage. The property includes remnants of a former truck stop, with existing structures such as a convenience store, fueling canopies, and a vehicle maintenance building—ideal for redevelopment. Conceptual plans envision a revitalized travel center with fueling stations, a rental and tire center, and expansive truck parking. Located within a federally designated Opportunity Zone, the site offers potential tax advantages for investors and developers. With combined traffic counts exceeding 34,000 vehicles per day and proximity to two international ports of entry, this site is well-positioned for logistics, transportation, and service-based operations. It also benefits from access to a regional workforce of over 2 million and a consumer population of 33 million within a 300-mile radius.
