PLYMOUTH, Mass. -- Volta Oil, a 16-store Northeastern chain, has picked PriceAdvantage, a division of Skyline Products Inc., to automate fuel pricing for its company-owned stores on the East Coast.
Volta Oil is using three key features of PriceAdvantage, including automatic import of its enterprise supplier's volume sales, real-time competitive survey collection and the one-click price change from headquarters to store point-of-sale (POS) and fuel pumps, according to Peter Garrett, president of Volta Oil.
"PriceAdvantage offered all the features and functions we needed to take control of our fuel pricing by improving our processes with greater efficiency. We no longer have to comb through spreadsheets of information to analyze our next pricing move; everything is easily accessible in PriceAdvantage," said Garrett.
"We're confident that PriceAdvantage will quickly and accurately provide Volta Oil with the strategic and tactical tools to maximize their overall fuel profitability," said Aaron McHugh, head of the PriceAdvantage division.
