Sheetz

Sheetz, Inc. is an American chain of convenience stores. Its stores, which are open 24/7 year-round, offer made-to-order fast food, and most include a gas station, while a few locations are full-scale truck stops, offering showers and a laundromat. The family-owned company has over 21,000 employees, and operates more than 800 company-owned stores located in Western, Central, and Northeastern Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Maryland, Ohio, Virginia, North Carolina, and Michigan as of 2025. Sheetz is the dominant convenience store chain in Pennsylvania, holding a virtual monopoly in its native Altoona, and a commanding share of the Pittsburgh, Harrisburg, and Wyoming Valley markets. It is noticeably absent from most of the Philadelphia metropolitan area due to the presence of competitor Wawa, leading to a fierce "rivalry" between the two chains among Pennsylvanians. However, the two companies themselves have a friendly relationship.
