Little General Stores welcomed a Dunkin’ quick-service restaurant (QSR) during a recent grand opening of the Marmet, West Virginia, convenience store.
The Little General location, 10410 MacCorkle Ave., has doubled in size and also features a remodeled Subway restaurant, the company said. As a part of the addition, the company added Tesla Supercharger stations and high-flow diesel pumps. The diesel fueling area also features diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) at the pumps and an expanded lot allowing for easier access for large trucks.
Area leaders, customers and staff gathered for a ribbon cutting Oct. 29 that included speakers from the Charleston Area Alliance, Marmet Mayor David Fontalbert, Kanawha County Commissioner Marc Slotnick and a representative from the office of Congresswoman Carol Miller (R-West Virginia).
Little General Stores is No. 59 on CSP’s 2024 Top 202 ranking of U.S. convenience-store chains by store count.
“This is the fourth Dunkin’ we’ve built in Kanawha County,” said Beckley, West Virginia-based Little General Stores President Greg Darby. “We continue to grow and are planning another Dunkin’ in South Charleston. We are proud to operate 12 Dunkin’ locations in the state of West Virginia and proud to be here in Marmet.”
Marmet Mayor Fontalbert thanked Little General Stores for investing in the town. “We’ve always been proud of Little General, and they do a great service for all of the hard-working people around town,” he said.
Kanawha County Commissioner Slotnick added, “On behalf of the Kanawha County Commission, I want to thank Little General for investing in Marmet … I know that great things can happen here.”
