Roots of Community Giving

Mark Jordan, Charleston native and proud graduate of The Citadel, embarked on his journey in the convenience store industry, gaining invaluable experience before bringing his vision to life with the creation of his first convenience store, The Pantry.

Refuel emerged as a beacon of innovation and growth under Jordan's leadership, prioritizing high-quality, high-traffic locations strategically placed to serve communities. Central to the brand's ethos is the cultivation of customer loyalty through exceptional service, inviting atmospheres, and enticing food service offerings deeply rooted in local traditions.

At Refuel Cares Foundation, we believe in the transformative power of compassion.

Our focus is on children, education, athletics, and health-related causes.

These pillars are the foundation for building vibrant and resilient communities.

We are driven by a commitment to create positive change and
foster growth.

From the inception of each convenience store, Mark Jordan was driven by a commitment to community investment. Recognizing that stakeholders extend beyond the company walls, Refuel's focus encompasses team members, customers, and the local community at large.

The Refuel Cares Foundation epitomizes the evolution of Jordan's original vision for Refuel Market convenience stores. This foundation is a testament to the company's unwavering dedication to giving back, ensuring that community enrichment remains at the heart of Refuel's journey.
