Sheetz, Inc.
 PROFILE
You might say Sheetz is to the convenience store business what Wal-Mart is to discount shopping. Noted for being exceptionally large (stores average 4,200 sq. ft., nearly twice the size of the average 7-Eleven), Sheetz stores sell groceries, fountain drinks, baked goods, and made-to-order sandwiches and salads, as well as discount gas and cigarettes. The company operates about 250 combination convenience stores and gas stations, mostly in small and midsized towns in Pennsylvania, but also in towns throughout Maryland, Ohio, Virginia, and West Virginia. Founded in 1952 by Bob Sheetz, the company is owned and run by the Sheetz family.
