Gas Station Business W/ Kitchen In Winfield, AL

Business Overview:

Transaction Details:

Rare low-cost entry opportunity for a buyer to take over an operating interstate-exit gas station with a full kitchen, existing sales, and no goodwill premium. Buyer only pays for inventory plus a $20,000 acquisition fee.

Inside sales (last 12 months): ~$46,000/month
Fuel sales: 19,000+ gallons/month
Margins: ~$0.30/gallon (gas) and ~$0.75/gallon (diesel)

This store previously performed significantly higher:

• 2024: ~$92,000/month inside sales and 45,000+ gallons

• Previous dealer: ~$106,000/month inside sales and 81,000 gallons

The drop is due to lack of active management, creating clear upside potential.

Rent: $14,900 NNN/month
Structure: Sublease with ~8 years remaining

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

Store Information:

Turnkey convenience store and gas station located directly off Interstate-22, serving interstate traffic, local customers, commuters, work crews, and travelers.

Features:

• Full kitchen with hood

• Active food program:

• 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 expand hours and increase food offerings.

Operations:

• Seller based in Birmingham (absentee)

• Partner visits ~30 minutes/day

• Payroll: ~$7,000/month (potential savings)

Growth Opportunities:

• Improve merchandising and store presentation

• Expand food service (high-margin category)

• Add:

• Breakfast/lunch combos

• Grab-and-go meals

• Coffee & beverages

• Catering and local meal deals

The existing kitchen provides a strong foundation to drive higher margins beyond fuel sales.

Geographic Details:

Located off a State Highway and Interstate-22 near Winfield, Alabama, offering strong visibility and access to both local and highway traffic.

Limited competition in the immediate trade area allows room for growth through better service, food quality, and pricing.

Nearby demand drivers:

• Northwest Medical Center

• Ivan K. Hill Recreation Park

• Residential communities and lodging

• Winfield High School (~500 students)

• Bevill State Community College (~1,800 students)

Demographics:

• Population growth: ~2.4% annually

• Median household income: ~$50,000

Combined with interstate exposure, this supports consistent local and traveler demand.

Why This Deal Stands Out:

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

Key Advantages:

• Zero goodwill cost

• Only inventory + $20,000 fee

• Existing sales and fuel volume

• Full kitchen in place

• Interstate exit location

• ~8 years remaining on lease

• Absentee management upside

• Potential payroll savings

• Strong opportunity to improve food, merchandising, and operations

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.
