Leasing

What separates a great gas station from a simply competent one? For those in the trade, the facilities in Norton represent the apex of both technical proficiency and customer service. The standard array of two to six pumps is repeated here, but what’s different is the speed and convenience of the experience of refueling one’s vehicle. Instead of siting the gas attendant’s register inside the adjacent convenience store, many facilities place the booth directly next to the pumps themselves. This changes the business dramatically; by having someone who can step out of their booth and immediately help a customer who is trying to refuel, customers feel like all of their needs are being attended to. Most importantly, positioning the booth in this manner makes it much easier for customers who wish to pay in cash to quickly transact their business and begin pumping.

This also opens up the floorplan of the convenience store, and allows the register to be designed to facilitate more grocery-oriented commerce. This is helpful for several reasons, not only to customers, but from the point of view of a business owner who wishes to increase their overall revenue streams: by creating a store that caters to people who are simply coming by to shop for food, the customer base expands considerably beyond travelers and commuters to locals. It allows the store to start competing with other grocery chains. Some of the refrigerated cases that line the back wall can be stocked with essentials such as cartons of milk or orange juice, or even eggs. Other foods that require more preparation time may start appearing on the shelves, including packages of rice and pasta sauces.

All of these additional items create more incentive to keep expanding the inventory. Of course, certain stock items such as a beverage dispensing machine that produces both fresh coffee and tasty sugar-infused drinks will always be a popular fueling stop item. However, owners and operators may choose to add other equipment, such as microwaves, rotisseries, and hot plates to help customers immediately eat the frozen foods they may be considering purchasing from the refrigerated cases. Accessories tend to be popular too, with a number of visitors especially buying toothbrushes, toothpaste, and other essential hygiene items that they may have forgotten to pack before they left for their trip.
