ARKO Corp.

ARKO Corp. on yhdysvaltalainen lähikauppa- ja polttoainejälleenmyyjä, jonka pääkonttori sijaitsee Richmondissa, Virginiassa. Sen liiketoimintamalli rakentuu polttoaineen, pakattujen tuotteiden, ruokapalveluiden ja oheispalveluiden myynnille laajan brändättyjen lähikauppojen verkoston kautta. Yhtiöllä on myös merkittävä tukkupolttoaineen jakelualusta, joka toimittaa polttoainetta jälleenmyyjille ja cardlock-kohteille; tämä täydentää vähittäisverkostoa ja kasvattaa polttoaineen ostojen volyymietua. Sen myymäläverkosto kattaa yli 30 osavaltiota sekä Columbia Districtin, mikä tekee liiketoiminnasta maantieteellisesti hajautetun useille Yhdysvaltain alueille. ARKO’n viimeaikainen strategia on painottanut joidenkin vähittäispaikkojen muuntamista jälleenmyyjäkohteiksi, myymälöiden päivittämistä sekä korkeamman katteen ruokapalveluiden ja kanta-asiakkuusliikenteen laajentamista.
