The survey indicates that 61% of respondents have a favorite convenience store, and almost half are willing to delay a restroom break to shop there. Additionally, 43% would risk driving on an empty tank to reach their preferred store.<\/p>\n<p>Travelers are also willing to pay more for convenience. Nearly 60% of respondents are happy to pay a markup on convenience store products if it means making only one stop. On average, Americans are willing to accept a 10-11% price increase for made-to-order meals and snacks, and up to a 9% increase for household essentials.<\/p>\n<p>Regarding food options during road trips, 62% of respondents have specifically visited a convenience store for meals, with one-third seeking hot, fresh, restaurant-style food. Nearly half have chosen convenience store food over other available options.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, convenience stores are evolving to meet consumer demands by incorporating new technologies and services. Sixty-two percent of respondents value mobile ordering, and 73% appreciate additional services like car washes. Nearly half of Americans wish for at least one electric vehicle charging station at every convenience store.<\/p>\n<p>Mark Morelli, president and CEO of Vontier, stated, \u00ab\u00a0The landscape of convenience stores is undergoing a significant transformation. Our research underscores the growing consumer demand for convenience and efficiency, such as mobile ordering, in their day-to-day lives. New technologies and services are raising the bar on the convenience store experience, making it more than just a stop on the journey but a destination in itself.\u00a0\u00bb[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=\u00a0\u00bb54px\u00a0\u00bb][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A recent survey by Vontier reveals that nearly 80% of travelers are willing to drive further to visit their preferred convenience store. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17,"featured_media":8459,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"color_menu":"","footer_color_background":"","featured_image_url":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[295,305],"tags":[],"news-type-taxonomy":[],"news-topic-taxonomy":[],"class_list":["post-8458","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-retail-analysis","category-retail-updates"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Survey reveals travelers&#039;
