An announcement is being made today in Midland, Texas that an agreement is in place for the Kent Companies to acquire the assets of Bountyland Petroleum and Bountyland Food Service, based near Seneca.  The convenience stores are to remain branded as Bountyland Quick Stop.  The acquisition is to include 11 company-owned Exxon-branded Bountyland stores, branded and unbranded dealer wholesale supply accounts, and a transportation company.  The portfolio of the Kent Companies will increase to 72 company-owned and operated convenience stores across Texas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and now the Carolinas.  The Bountyland convenience stores will continue to sell ExxonMobil fuels.  David Land, owner and CEO of Bountyland, said, “We look forward to introducing our customers to The Kent Companies as ownership changes over the next few weeks.  We thank you for the years of friendship, and loyalty.  Please welcome the Kent Companies to the Carolinas.”
