Giant Eagle Convenience Division/GetGo

GetGo, the convenience-store division of the Pittsburgh-based Giant Eagle supermarket chain, owns and operates stores in five states, primarily focused in the metropolitan areas of Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Columbus and Indianapolis.

A new leadership team of industry veterans began executing on a growth plan this year, aiming to open more than 20 new GetGo stores each year. GetGo's car wash business, WetGo, had its own expansion in 2022, with the first standalone WetGo location opening and more to come.

GetGo's myPerks loyalty program, which GetGo shares with Giant Eagle and Market District supermarkets, allows members to earn perks on all purchases at any of the Giant Eagle locations. Those perks can be banked and later redeemed for money off future purchases. GetGo added to this savings opportunity with AdvantagePay, which gives members up to 30 cents off each gallon of fuel every day.

On the technology front, GetGo implemented a new system for price book and inventory-management, as well as electronic shelf labels, which will be rolled out across their entire network in 2023.

In 2021, Giant Eagle supermarkets and GetGo convenience-store locations began accepting PayPal and Venmo as forms of payment, becoming the first U.S. chains to offer customers the ability to use them at the register. The company also partnered with Grabango in 2021 for frictionless and contactless checkout technology.

For benchmarking purposes, store counts are as of Jan. 1, 2023.
