Quicklee's opens new location and reaches 30 store milestone
The retailer has acquired a new service station in the New York area, marking its fifth opening of the year and its first in the City of Rochester.
Quicklee’s Convenience Stores has acquired a new location in the City of Rochester, marking the retailer’s 30th site in Upstate New York. It is one of five new locations to have opened in the past year and the first in Rochester.
“Expansion in the Rochester area is really important to our growth, and our local identity. Having started in Avon, NY, the Monroe County/Finger Lakes region is incredibly important to us. We are looking to support and grow within the region for many years to come,” said Ken Perelli, Vice President and COO of Quicklee’s.
In recent years the company has opened or acquired multiple stations and stores near the city, including locations in Brighton, Fairport and Henrietta. In July, the company acquired the Hudson and Titus Mobil station, marking the first Quicklee’s to open for operation in Irondequoit.
“As a 30-store chain we have better buying power and more resources than a single-store operator. We can deliver better priced options to the community, hire a larger team and provide a more enjoyable experience for everyone,” added Brian Mongi, General Manager of Quicklee’s.
The new Winton Road store will continue to provide fuel, food, beverages, and other necessities to the community. Plans to remodel the location with a new exterior facade and new interior look are in future plans, pending approval.
