SAVANNAH, Ga. -- Convenience-store retailer Parker’s has been voted the “most fabulous gas station” by Effingham Living readers in the Georgia publication’s summer 2016 issue.
“Effingham loves Parker’s Gas Stations—in fact, there are at least five in the county. With PumpPal perks and daily specials, Parker’s is dedicated to making customer’s lives a little easier, particularly when they are on the go,” the magazine wrote.
“We’re deeply honored to earn this recognition from our customers in Effingham County,” said Greg Parker, president and CEO of Parker’s. “Effingham County is a fast-growing market with a strong appreciation for the Parker’s brand, which is focused on delivering fast, friendly service and saving our customers time.”
Parker’s operates popular convenience stores in Guyton, Rincon and Springfield, Ga., and has plans for growth in Effingham County. The company recently donated $8,000 to Effingham County Public Schools through its Fueling the Community charitable program.
