SBJ's 2006 Dynamic Dozen
Rapid Robert’s was announced by Springfield Business Journal as one of the fastest growing companies in Southwest Missouri for the second year in a row. Twelve companies were selected by SBJ to be recognized as the ‘Dynamic Dozen’. The selection was based on the growth each company has experienced in the past three years. Since 2003, Rapid Robert’s has increased revenues 60 percent. President and CEO Rob Wilson, contributes much of the company's 2005 success to the mature locations - stores opened in the last few years that reached their full potential. He also credits clean stores with new looks and quality personnel as growth factors. “We’re trying to put a little bit of glitz into convenience stores,” said Operations Manager Sherry Hurd. “We’re not gas stations anymore… we’re an entire package.” |
