“We were thrilled to celebrate the grand opening of our newest store, enriching our ability to serve our valued customers, especially those in proximity to the Hunter Army Airfield,” remarked Matt Clements, president of Enmarket, a division of the Savannah, Ga.-based Colonial Group. “As we commemorate our 60th year anniversary, this milestone holds special significance for us, reflecting our longstanding commitment to providing exceptional service and convenience to the communities we serve.”
The new store features foodservice from the renowned Eatery and Mooz frozen yogurt. Additionally, customers can avail themselves of the convenience of an in-bay Marketwash car wash.
Employing 25 individuals on-site, the store stands on the grounds of a former Fiat dealership, now transformed into a state-of-the-art retail space. Boasting a 12-pump canopy offering multiple fuel grades including unleaded, mid-grade, premium, non-ethanol and diesel, Enmarket ensures a comprehensive service experience for patrons. Moreover, the addition of Marketwash, Enmarket’s in-bay car wash brand, provides customers with an array of car wash package options, accessible through the Marketwash mobile app.
Enmarket remains committed to environmental stewardship, exemplified by the preservation of a 300-year-old live oak tree on the property. Collaborating with Bartlett Tree Services, Enmarket implemented various conservation techniques to safeguard this natural treasure. The majestic Savannah Live Oak now serves as a focal point, offering outdoor seating beneath its sprawling canopy.
Spanning 6,098 square feet, the convenience store boasts the acclaimed Enmarket Eatery. The Eatery offers a Southern-inspired menu featuring an array of fresh, healthy and on-the-go options. From breakfast burritos and platters to lunch specials and made-fresh fried chicken, the Eatery caters to diverse tastes. Moreover, customers can indulge in Mooz frozen yogurt, complemented by an endless beverage bar offering high-quality Bean-2-Cup coffee, Savannah Sweet Tea, and a myriad of fountain and frozen beverage choices.
