Pump N Pantry

Pump N Pantry is a privately owned convenience store chain rooted in northeastern and central Pennsylvania. The company opened its first store in Ulster in 1975 and has grown steadily over the decades, becoming a familiar presence in rural and small-town communities. By the late 1990s, Pump N Pantry had already established a strong regional footprint, and as of November 2025, it operates 17 locations across towns such as Towanda, Montrose, and Wyalusing.

Throughout its history, Pump N Pantry has focused on serving areas that often lack easy access to fuel, groceries, and quick meals. The brand is known for selecting sites with strong visibility and convenient access, particularly along major highways and in underserved communities. Over the past five years, the company has continued to pursue new sites, prioritizing both ground-up development and conversions to meet local demand. Recent efforts have centered on expanding in northeastern and central Pennsylvania, with particular attention to Susquehanna and Bradford counties.

Pump N Pantry’s stores often function as local hubs, offering fuel, essential goods, made-to-order sandwiches, and fresh coffee. The company remains independent, with its headquarters in Montrose, and is not a franchisor. Its active presence on social media platforms such as Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram reflects ongoing engagement with both customers and the broader community. For landlords, brokers, and developers, Pump N Pantry stands out for its consistent growth, preference for freestanding formats with ample parking, and a reputation for reliable operations in Pennsylvania’s secondary and tertiary markets.
