RaceTrac Introduces Online Ordering Platform

ATLANTA — RaceTrac Petroleum is launching an online ordering platform as the company's latest effort to combat COVID-19.

Through the new service, guests are able to:

• Order directly from the RaceTrac website for pickup at a store location in the closest proximity.
• Select "Whatever Gets You Going" from a menu of available food, drink, alcohol and tobacco items, then edit quantities for the checkout cart.
• Pick up their orders from selected stores within 30 minutes using the "Grab and Go Box," which allows guests to provide their name on the order, pay at the pass-through window and receive the order. 

"RaceTrac is committed to the continuous support of our communities and guests through this unprecedented and uncertain time," said Melanie Isbill, chief marketing officer of RaceTrac. "Online ordering is the newest addition to the products and services we are offering to help continue to get our guests whatever gets them going while providing a safe, clean and reliable experience."
