SPINX, a Greenville-based fuel and convenience store company, announced plans to build a new store on the corner of Rutherford Rd. and Shaw St., which is slated to open by the end of 2018. The new store will serve as a marquee entry point of the “Poinsett District,” a corridor along Poinsett Highway that the Greenville County Redevelopment Authority is focused on revitalizing.

“The location of this store has a very special place in my heart,” stated Stewart Spinks, founder and chairman of The SPINX Company. “This corner was the site of my first station years ago, where my mom and I actually worked together here. I look forward to providing for the community in the same spot as we did many years ago with one of our biggest stores yet.”

At more than 6,600 square feet, this will be SPINX’s largest store to date and will feature a full-service kitchen, eight multi-product fuel dispenser pumps, and a 72 ft. tunnel car wash with free vacuums as part of its statewide car wash club.
