A gas station is seen as a refuge stop. The restroom attached to gas station is the single most important feature of a gas station.

Don't feel bad for them, they can retire selling Energy drinks alone without even taking into consideration the other 1500 products they sell. My neighbor has a QT, he says while gas is not the money maker he can pay himself and his employees with Alcohol sales alone. Gas station owners are filthy rich, especially if they are from India.

Interesting. 1970 (my first business) Arco station - gas price 40.9 a gallon on premium (most common type sold then) gross profit per gallon? .08 cents (average station back then 1,000 gallons a day) Gross profit per day 80 dollars. Rewards? Back then, Green or Blue Chip stamps (sometimes 3 times or as much as 10 times purchase) Maps from the company? 10 cents sold for 50 cents. Oil 50% gross profit. Backroom? Usually 1 - 3 thousand a month. Arco paid 90 dollars a month back then if your restrooms were kept clean, inspected twice a month. Gas wars? We ate 1/4 cent for each 1 cent it dropped through a "Sales Meter Subsidy" Coke machine, Cigarete machine, Candy machine, later a Tom's vending machine. Yes, things have changed.

Hey great topic. I could not agree more that the little mom and pop stops are starting to disappear because the majority of people realize that it is supply and demand for everything. Wawa is best known for its hoagies and it’s coffee. I’m not sure if they have a rewards program but as a truck driver I could not agree more that over the road rewards programs are what keep us coming back. Free showers and in-store credit, can’t beat it.

How much money you earn from gas station
@michaelh50553 жыл бұрын
When gas stations claim they only make a penny or two profit per gallon of gas, they are full of chit. I have a friend who owns a station. He says a penny or two profit would be about the dumbest business investment in the US. He also says drinks and snacks help, but are not the main money maker. He says gas is typically .40-.52 a gallon profit. He laughs at the thought of making only 50.00 profit on selling 5,000 gallons of gas. Says one employees shift at minimum wage would eat up all the profit and more.... Says he has no idea where the thought of one or two cents profit comes from.
@Lucky8s2 жыл бұрын
The National Association of Convenience Stores claims that gas station owners make a NET profit of 2-3 cents per gallon of gasoline, net referring to income after operating expenses (employee wages being one of them) and credit card fees, etc. Sorry, but whoever communicated the idea to your friend that gas station owners only make a gross profit of 2-3 cents per gallon clearly had no idea what they were talking about. Should've done their research before talking.
@TheBreakdownWithLuke2 жыл бұрын
Very likely your friend owns a truck stop selling Diesel. Profit on Diesel is typical in the $0.15 to $0.30 for many truck stops with some in high demand areas getting closer to $1 of profit on Diesel. Gas is typical even in high profit margin areas under $0.10 per gallon profit after all expenses. Remember this is profit after expenses.
