The Quicklee’s Story
Quicklee’s is one of upstate New York’s largest and fastest growing family-owned and operated convenience store chains.
The first Quicklee’s location, founded by Pete Bruckel and his family, opened in 1995 with the idea that there is “always convenience in our lives.” Since then, each store that the company has opened follows the same mentality.
When Quicklee’s acquires or builds a new location, the company designs, stocks and hires employees who will help to ensure that customers have access to goods they need.
Today, Quicklee’s remains family-owned and led by Ken Perelli. Under his leadership the Quicklee’s brand, executive team, retail staff and network of locations has rapidly expanded.
Now, you can find over 28 Quicklee’s locations, in more than 18 cities, staffed by a team of 175-plus employees.
“While we experienced rapid growth in recent years to our core business, our expansion efforts didn’t stop there,” according to the company’s website. “In 2017 we expanded our business model, opening the first Quicklee’s Travel Center in Avon, N.Y.”
Quicklee’s remains focused on the growth of its network of stores both through acquisitions and new store builds, as well as growth of its community outreach efforts.
