Atlanta, May 24, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RaceTrac, Georgia’s second largest privately owned company, celebrates its 90th anniversary as a convenience store leader with roots dating back to 1934, when founder Carl Bolch, Sr. opened a fuel store known as Carl Bolch Trackside Stations in Missouri.
In the decades that followed, the company pioneered self-service gasoline across the South, relocated its headquarters to Atlanta, and is now a third-generation, family-owned company with more than 10,000 team members across two retail divisions—RaceTrac and RaceWay—and three operating companies—Energy Dispatch, Metroplex Energy and Gulf Oil.
“When my grandfather opened his first gas station 90 years ago, I’m sure he never imagined his company would grow into the modern convenience store destination that nearly 400 million guests enjoy at our nearly 800 RaceTrac and RaceWay locations across 13 states each year,” said Melanie Isbill, chief brand officer at RaceTrac. “Our mission from day one has been to make people’s lives simpler and more enjoyable, and we’re thrilled to celebrate this momentous milestone with our guests by offering a variety of fantastic and discounted food and drink items for ‘Whatever Gets You Going.’”
