TREX began with an unexpected opportunity. Our founder, Lowell Hartell, entered the convenience store business in 1988 when he and two partners purchased an old Stuckey’s store—despite knowing very little about the industry. After early financial challenges, Lowell committed himself fully to learning the business, eventually buying out his partners and dedicating his career to building what would become TREX. Through perseverance, optimism, and a passion for growth, he expanded from a single struggling store into a thriving organization. Today, TREX operates more than 15 businesses and employs over 200 team members. While we’ve grown significantly, our culture remains rooted in the values Lowell established from the beginning: hard work, continuous improvement, and a commitment to “Do the Right Thing.” We’re proud to foster a workplace built on integrity, teamwork, and the shared goal of serving our communities with excellence.
