GPM Investments LLC became one of the largest privately owned companies in the convenience channel when it acquired 263 stores in the Southeast from VPS Convenience Group in 2013. Since that purchase, GPM has continued to grow through acquisition as it sheds underperforming stores.
GPM operates under a portfolio of nearly a dozen store brands.
In 2017, GPM acquired the 273-store E-Z Mart chain based in Texarkana, Texas, from industry icon Sonja Hubbard and her family.
GPM’s Fas Mart brand features a notable foodservice offering, including fried chicken, panini sandwiches and fresh grab-and-go items.
