Low Carbon Technology Strategies for Kitchens. A gas station is probably the last place anyone would expect to have vegan-friendly options , but add this to the growing list of Sheetz firsts. Starting in December of , Sheetz made the plant-based Beyond Burger available across its then locations. The partnership with Beyond Meat is the first of its kind in the convenience store industry.
The Sheetz Beyond Burger offers a percent plant-based meat option for customers. But it promises similar texture and taste as a traditional beef burger. In an era where brands are more environmentally conscious than ever before, it might be even more surprising that a gas station would be near the top of its industry in offering sustainable solutions for the future.
But Sheetz is at it again in its commitment to offering E15 fuel to its customers since Granted, Sheetz was aided by the Prime the Pump initiative in its early adoption of E15, but it's still a grand gesture by a large gasoline retail company. According to the Iowa Renewable Fuels Associaton , E15 15 percent ethanol, 85 percent gasoline is a high-quality, high octane fuel that burns cleaner and performs better, as long as a given vehicle is approved for use.
Most models beyond are fine. E15 typically has an octane rating of 88, but costs less than regular unleaded gasoline. This means retailers have a lower-priced fuel to advertise across their signage which means more MTOs! However, it's mostly a win-win scenario. Sheetz gets the opportunity to offer consumers more value while attracting a higher volume of traffic in general, at little to no investment cost. Additionally, they get to be industry leaders once again.
It's hard to mention Sheetz without also mentioning rival Wawa, a massively popular convenience store that operates on a similar model to Sheetz and in many of the same areas. And while both businesses have mostly contributed similarly positive experiences to the communities they're established in, the "feud" is certainly fascinating in how it relates to Pennsylvania culture as a whole.
Fridg is an Emmy-nominated filmmaker whose work has appeared in productions for the Discovery Channel, Facebook, and the NFL, was inspired to dig into exactly how and why two convenience stores mean so much to so many people across the state. A Kickstarter began in for the project, which is still in development. There was a time when gas pumps were a new addition to the Sheetz convenience store model.
Since their implementation, it's difficult to not think of Sheetz as the gas station with a high-quality fast food option. But with the popularity of its MTO menu, expansive coffee options, and general convenience store offerings, it's surprising Sheetz hasn't moved to more pumpless locations in general.
Starting around , that idea became a major focus for the company in an effort to expand to more urban areas and college towns.
