S&G Convenience Stores has acquired eight PS Food Mart convenience stores in the Toledo, Ohio, market from Folk Oil Co. business unit Toledo 76 Inc.
- S&G Convenience Stores is No. 108 and Folk Oil is No. 153 on CSP’s 2025 Top 202 ranking of U.S. c-store chains by store count.
Founded in the 1920s by the Folk family, Folk Oil operates approximately 40 c-stores in south central Michigan and northern Ohio under the PS Food Mart name. It also owns and manages five automatic car washes, nine Subway franchises, a Tubby’s Sub franchise, a Denny’s restaurant franchise, three Chester’s Chicken franchises and the 115 Family Restaurant, according to the Homer, Michigan-based company’s website.

The sale enables Folk Oil to “right-size” its portfolio, sharpen its geographic focus and reallocate resources to accelerate growth and continue investment across its core Michigan markets, it said.
Sylvania, Ohio-based S&G operates more than 60 convenience stores under the S&G Stores and Stop & Go Stores brands. Foodservice offerings include Chester’s Chicken and Godfather’s Pizza…
