Parker’s recently swept four categories in the 2013 Savannah Morning News Reader’s Choice Awards. Voters honored Parker’s as Best Convenience Store and also gave the company top honors in the following categories: Best Wine Selection, Best Lunch Bargain and Best She Crab Soup.

The Reader’s Choice Awards honor the Savannah area’s best businesses, services and attractions. Every year, voters select their favorite companies.

“To earn this acclaim from our customers is the ultimate honor,” said Greg Parker, president and CEO of Parker’s. “Everything we do at Parker’s is focused on exceeding customer expectations, from our store design to our check-out technology. We’re truly humbled to receive such a sweeping endorsement from our loyal customers.”

In addition to delivering exceptional products and state-of-the-art services, Parker’s is widely considered an industry leader for its Fueling the Community program, which gives back one cent of every gallon of gas sold on the first Wednesday of each month to public and private schools in every community where Parker’s does business. The company’s PumpPal loyalty program has also saved customers more than $3 million since its inception in 2011.

Parker’s was recently ranked on Inc.’s elite list of the top 5,000 fastest-growing private companies in the U.S. and selected as the Savannah Morning News Entrepreneur of the Year.

The company is headquartered in Savannah, Ga. and operates successful convenience stores across Georgia and South Carolina. Parker’s plans to open additional locations in Beaufort, Jasper, Chatham, Bryan, Liberty, Effingham and Bulloch counties.
