Do you have a favorite convenience store?

Vontier, a company that delivers connected mobility solutions, recently did a survey that asked exactly that. Sixty-one percent of respondents said they do, and almost 80% said they were willing to drive out of their way to visit their preferred store. The survey also showed that consumers value additional services such as car washes, mobile ordering, and EV charging stations. 

Increasingly in today's fast-paced world, convenience stores have evolved beyond their traditional role, becoming essential hubs for consumers seeking quality prepared foods and efficient shopping experiences. According to data from the industry association NACS, prepared food sales now dominate in-store purchases, highlighting the significant shift in consumer preferences.

Reflecting this evolution, Pitpalazzo is poised to redefine the highway travel center experience. Our Travel Center is designed to exceed modern consumer expectations with a curated selection of premium amenities:
