Abstract

The author reports that, in a time when the consumer trend in America is toward dissatisfaction with customer service, Wawa Inc. is praised for its service in several Wawa-related online community groups. Wawa's chief executive officer, Howard Stoeckel, says that the convenience store focuses on repeat-customer business. The author suggests that the company does a better job of investing in the people it hires than most chain stores.
