The amount of fuel dispensed depends on your store. Currently, convenience stores sell over 80% of all fuel sold in the United States. On average, RaceWay stores currently pump 47,000 gallons per week, well above the industry average of 30,000 per week. Your store may pump more or less.
If you are selected as a potential operator, RaceWay will provide you with historical information about the volume of fuel pumped at the store you are interested in prior to you becoming an operator. This historical information is no guarantee that the store will continue to pump that volume of fuel when you operate it. Fuel volume is affected by many factors including location, economic climate, fuel prices, and competition in your market. You should make your own assessment of the store's potential to produce fuel sales.
The History of RaceWay
RaceWay's roots go back over 75 years to 1934 when Carl Bolch Sr. opened independent gas stations in St. Louis, Missouri, under the name Carl Bolch Trackside Stations. His strategy was to be independent of major oil companies and thus be able to consistently offer lower-priced gasoline to the public. In 1959, he relocated and acquired the Oil Well Company of Opp, Alabama, which consisted of numerous independent stores located, for the most part, in rural areas of Alabama. These stores and the ones opened after them evolved into the early RaceWay concept: full-service stores opened in conjunction with small grocery stores.
In 1967, Carl Bolch Jr., the current Chief Executive Officer, joined the company in Montgomery, Alabama. He expanded the company's geography throughout the South and into Texas on the newly constructed interstate system and pioneered the concept of self-service gasoline in Alabama, Florida and Georgia. Today the RaceWay brand has grown to almost 300 stores across 12 states in the Southeastern United States.
