Power Mart Flexes Its Brand

by David Bennett (Convenience Store Decisions) A unique retail service provider is expanding its vision for the future. -- ... “It’s basically just like a co-op,” (Sam) Odeh (founder and CEO of Power Buying Dealers USA Inc. (PBD USA)) said. “So the dealer brings the land to the table. We bring the construction, we bring the marketing, and we bring the operation.”

Designed to span three stories, the building would include a full liquor store; “a store within a store,” Odeh described it.

Offering ethanol and biodiesel fuels, the store, consuming upward of 13,000 square feet, would also offer a third–floor space that can be used for business meetings and small events.

In addition to these programs, another of the company’s divisions, Power Energy Corp., is the fuel distribution company, which handles the “Power” fuels, including regular base fuels, Ethanol E85 and biodiesel.
