Time to Grow – or Go

With EVs growing, work habits transforming and Covid (hopefully) disappearing, the c-store industry faces serious questions about its future. Do we invest in EV infrastructure? How do we rebuild lost foot traffic? How do we interface with an increasingly omni-channel economy? And do traditional boxes have a future in an increasingly rewards-driven culture? Four retail leaders share differing strategies and business models on how they are growing their companies and where they are making their investments. What is clear is standing still or little tweaks will not cut it.
