Convenience Stores Crack Open the Catering Market: Frank Beard Explains
These days customers are buying much more than roller hot dogs and Twinkies at the convenience store. They're also grabbing delicious, freshly prepared breakfast and ordering catering. And it's not only motorists who are shopping, but the local community. Some of the biggest "c-stores," aka convenience stores, are betting that catering can be profitable. With c-stores increasingly tapping into the quick service restaurant (QSR) and catering markets, these appear to be golden years for the c-store industry.
In Part 2 of this podcast, we go inside the mind of Frank Beard, an Analyst for the smartphone app GasBuddy, to explore the opportunity for convenience stores to nab a local base of catering customers. Frank shares how gas station and convenience store operators can take their business beyond their stores' walls to capitalize on the booming catering market. Listen to Part 2 above, and if you missed Part 1, you can find it here.
