August 28, 2017
The Spinx Company, an operator of nearly 80 convenience retail stores throughout South Carolina, received national recognition as one of the largest U.S. convenience stores in the July issue of Convenience Store Magazine. Founded in 1972 in Greenville, S.C., Spinx operates stores in Greenville, Spartanburg, Anderson, Columbia and Charleston, and continues to grow through the addition of new locations.
Steve Spinks, CEO of Spinx states, “We are honored to be on Convenience Store Magazine’s annual Top 100 list again this year and I consider it an affirmation of our ongoing growth strategy. We are committed to growing the number of Spinx stores to meet the needs of on-the-go consumers in our markets.”
Stan Storti, president of Spinx, adds, “While this list may be based on store count, our focus has always been, and will continue to be, on the quality of our customers’ experience. Our customers love the Spinx brand, and we want to give them more of what they love by growing to serve more of our Carolina neighbors.”
Currently, there are more than 155,000 convenience stores in the U.S., and the number of stores has grown exponentially over the past five years. Spinx has added 23 stores since 2012, and has plans to steadily add stores in locations that will serve travelers and commuters looking for fresh, on-the-go food and beverage selections in a safe, clean and friendly environment.
