Transaction Details:

Rare low-cost entry opportunity to acquire an operating interstate-exit gas station with existing inside sales, strong fuel volume, diesel sales, a shower, and zero goodwill premium. Buyer only pays for inventory plus a $20,000 acquisition fee.

Inside sales (last 12 months): $49,500+/month
Fuel sales: 33,000+ gallons/month
Margins: ~$0.30/gallon (gas) and $0.75/gallon (diesel)

2024 performance:
Inside sales ~$55,000/month with similar fuel volume.
Previous operator achieved $65,000/month inside sales and 85,400 gallons/month.

Rent: $9,800 NNN/month
Structure: Sublease (approx. 8 years remaining)

Key Advantage:
No goodwill cost — only inventory + $20,000 fee.

The store is currently near break-even due to absentee management and ~$7,000/month payroll, creating strong upside for an owner-operator.

Store Information:

Turnkey convenience store and gas station located directly off Interstate-22, serving:

• Local residents
• Commuters & workers
• Truck drivers
• RV travelers

Key Features:

• Shower (major trucker draw)
• Full kitchen with hood
• Active food program including:
  • Breakfast (eggs, biscuits, grits)
  • Burgers, sandwiches, BLTs
  • Chicken, fish combos
  • Philly cheesesteaks
  • Hunt Brothers Pizza
  • Grab-and-go meals

Hours: 4:00 AM – 9:00 PM (daily)
Opportunity to extend hours and expand food offerings.

Current operations:

• Seller is remote (based in Birmingham)
• Partner visits ~30 minutes/day
• Payroll: ~$7,000/month (potential savings for owner-operator)

Growth Opportunities:

• Improve merchandising & store presentation
• Expand food service (high-margin category)
• Add:
  • Breakfast/lunch combos
  • Grab-and-go meals
  • Coffee & beverages
  • Catering/local meal deals

The kitchen + shower combo creates a strong competitive advantage versus typical small gas stations.

Location & Geographic Details:

Situated at an I-22 exit near Hamilton, Alabama, offering:

• Strong visibility and easy access
• Exposure to both local and interstate traffic
• Limited nearby interstate competition

Demographics:

• Population: ~6,900
• Median household income: ~$54,871
• Growing employment (2024 data)
• Traffic count: ~3,020 vehicles/day

Combination of local demand + interstate traffic supports steady business potential.

Why This Deal Stands Out:

This is a low-entry, high-upside opportunity — not a high-goodwill purchase.

Key Benefits:

• Zero goodwill cost
• Only inventory + $20,000 fee
• Existing revenue & fuel volume
• Strong diesel margins
• Interstate exit location
• Shower & trucker appeal
• Established operations
• Expansion potential in food & retail

Additional Opportunity:

Seller owns another gas station within 15 minutes.
Option to purchase one or both for a multi-store setup.

Seller cannot actively manage both — creating a strong opportunity for the right buyer
