Rutter'sRutter’s has been voted the best convenience store in York, Pa.

Rutter’s Farm Stores was recently nominated in five different categories, and readers of The York Daily Record and The York Sunday News have voted the chain as first in three categories and third in the other two categories for which it was nominated.

Rutter’s was nominated in the categories of Best Convenience Store, Best Coffee, Best Milk, Best Quick Service Restaurant and Best Wings, and the chain placed in all five areas.

Rutter’s was voted first for Best Coffee, Best Milk and Best Convenience Store. This is the 14th year in a row Rutter’s has won Best Milk. This was the first year for the Best Convenience Store category. Rutter’s received third place for Best Quick Service Restaurant and Best Wings. In both of those categories, Rutter’s went up against some big chains, like Chick-Fil-A, Panera Bread, Buffalo Wild Wings, Quaker Steak & Lube and Chipotle, and performed admirably to garner recognition.

“We are honored to receive the recognition from our loyal customers to win first in three categories. It is wonderful to have customers recognize our Rutter’s dairy products, coffee, foodservice and overall convenience store offerings as the best. This just reassures our commitment to growing and continuing to support our customers and team members,” said Rutter’s chief customer officer, Derek Gaskins.

With roots dating back to 1747, Rutter’s 269 year history makes it the oldest vertically-integrated food company in the U.S. Rutter’s is widely recognized as an industry leader in food service, innovative technology and customer service. Rutter’s was the first U.S. convenience store chain to win the coveted “International Convenience Retailer of the Year” award. It is guided by the family’s third generation of leadership with Scott Hartman president and CEO, Todd Rutter as president of Rutter’s Dairy and Tim Rutter as president of M&G Reality.
