Corner Pantry has opened its newest c-store in Camden, S.C., located at 51 East DeKalb St. The store opened in July.
The new store is Corner Pantry’s fifth location in the Camden area, continuing the chain’s investment in the community following its 2023 acquisition of Speaks Oil Co.
Built on a 4.5-acre site with a Shell-branded fuel station, the location brings fast, convenient service to the community.
“We’re proud to be a part of the Camden community and excited for this new location that will provide customers a safe and clean environment for fast, convenient gas and food and beverage service,” said Corner Pantry Owner and CEO David Tucker, Sr.
Paragon Solutions led the branding and environmental design for the location, developing an interior and exterior program built around Corner Pantry’s “It Just Feels Right” identity.
The design pairs a warm palette of stone veneer, wood-look metal siding, and Corner Pantry’s signature red and yellow accents to create a clean, welcoming environment for customers.
Inside, the store showcases a full foodservice program under the Corner Pantry Kitchen banner, a dedicated coffee island with a bean-to-cup program, a Beerhouse and Craft Corner beer cave, a Belly Wash beverage station with fountain and frozen offerings, and a grab-and-go case for fresh options.
Suspended geometric ceiling elements over the seating and coffee area echo the brand’s triangular icon and give the space a distinctive sense of place.
“Every detail of this store was designed to reflect who Corner Pantry is and the community it serves,” said Austin Burns, president and CEO of Paragon Solutions. “Camden customers should walk in and immediately feel that this is a place built for them, with fast, fresh, convenient service in an environment that feels genuinely local.”
Corner Pantry serves the Midlands of South Carolina with 26 convenience store locations, along with commercial fueling, fuel transportation and fuel delivery services.
