Letters to Editor:
Citgos now called Petro Express in Charlotte

Hi,
Here in Charlotte, a number of stations that had Citgo signs up now have "PetroExpress". Would you know if the NC based PetroGas is an independent concern, or was it created and funded by Citgo? I'd like to patronize them if they gave them the boot like 7-Eleven. But if it's the same horse with a different name, then I want to make flyers about it being still connected to Citgo.
Thank you, Mike Walsh Charlotte NC

Hi Mike,I actually could not find such proof dispite many claims as such. I contacted PetroExpress and they appear to be very much the same as 7-11, where they used to carry Citgo brand but for obvious reasons are switching to their own brand of gas.
This is a statement from their company:
PETRO EXPRESS – simply the best
Petro Express Inc. is a locally owned and operated convenience store chain with corporate headquarters in Charlotte, NC. The founding partners are native Charlotteans and Petro Express owns and operates 66 convenience stores located throughout North Carolina and South Carolina.
Our stores are highly visible, strategically located, and consistently rank among the highest volume convenience store locations within the Charlotte area. The owners and employees of Petro Express are committed to providing our customers with quality products and service at a competitive price. Our goal is to be “Simply the Best” at all we do.
In our efforts to be “Simply the Best” many of our stores have been updated within the last year. As part of this update process, we have chosen to market the Petro Express fuel brand in lieu of any national brand. 45 of our locations will be updated this year with the remaining 21 locations scheduled for completion in 2007. We feel this renewed emphasis on the Petro Express Brand will allow our company to be a market leader for years to come.
