Fast Stop Markets Taps OpenStore for Tech Solution

HOHENWALD, Tenn. -- Fast Stop Markets is ratcheting up its technology initiatives with the launch of OpenStore by GasBuddy.

The operator of nine convenience stores, based in Tennessee, is pairing with OpenStore to provide branded store websites for each store location, free mobile apps, up-to-date gas prices, deals and promotions and contests. By downloading the free app, customers will receive mobile coupons and learn about in-store promotions. Customers can also review each store and send feedback directly from their phones.

"Fast Stop continues to advance to become the industry leader by building loyal relationships with customers and involving them in change and corporate value as well as advancing technology," explained Seth Blanks, general manager of retail at Fast Stop Markets. "The opportunities with OpenStore by GasBuddy are really exciting for Fast Stop and our customers."

Fast Stop is the latest retailer to team with OpenStore. Most recently, PS Food Mart partnered with the company, as CSNews Online reported earlier this month. Rotten Robbie, Meyer Oil and Town Pump are also among the retailers to sign up with the tech solution in the past few months.

"Providing great value is just about as simple as you can make it," said Jason Toews, co-founder and CEO of OpenStore by GasBuddy. "And customers love the convenience of using apps and being rewarded for their loyalty as a customer. OpenStore is delighted to have Fast Stop Markets launch with the award-winning product suite and we are proud to be part of their continuing success in serving their customers."
