Celebrations to announce new products and drive sales.

Stripes Convenience Stores is building excitement amongst consumers by hosting celebrations to welcome its new product, Sunoco Fuel.

Stripes Convenience Stores hosted three “Neighborhood and Community NASCAR Celebrations” as part of welcoming Sunoco Fuel, the Official Fuel of  NASCAR, to Abilene, Texas.
