C Store & Gas Station operator becomes the CEO of a software company – CStore News Magazine publishes Petrosoft’s story.

C Store & Gas Station operator ends up innovating the software market, creating a solution for the under-served convenience store market, and becomes the CEO of a software company. An article about Petrosoft from the Convenience Store News Magazine.
Petrosoft, the maker of C-Store Office® and Fuel-Central® software came about when the company owner shopped for a business automation program more than a decade ago and found no answer that made sense for his convenience stores and gas stations. So he commissioned a team of software developers to write a few business programs for managing his C-Stores & Gas Stations. With the help of that software he managed and acquired more businesses. Those businesses showed great performance and beat industry averages in margins, profits, turnover and other key indicators. Did it then, and doing it now.
Word got out and Petrosoft was formed, servicing Convenience Stores & Gas Stations since then. For over a decade Petrosoft has been innovating software for retail and petroleum industry enjoying immediate feedback from the end user – the company CEO. We hope this gives you an idea about our setup and you can read much more in the “From Rags to Riches” story from Convenience Store Magazine.
