Costco Wholesale is considering plans to open what would be its only Central Massachusetts location as part of what would be a wider revamping of an area mall.

Convenience store and gas station chain Cumberland Farms is further broadening its geographical footprint as the Westborough-based company is set to open nine new locations throughout Massachusetts and Rhode Island.
