Kent Kwik Stores Collecting Donations for PBRC Helping Hands

Now through February 11, 2019, Kent Kwik Stores will be collecting donations for the Permian Basin Rehab Center’s Helping Hands campaign. During the campaign, guests can donate anywhere from $1 to $100 and write their name or the name of a loved one on a hand to be placed inside the participating store.

” Since 1953, the Permian Basin Rehab Center (PBRC) has served thousands of patients of all ages and abilities who find themselves in need. The PBRC is the Permian Basin’s only comprehensive, non-profit, multidisciplinary rehabilitation facility that provides speech, physical, occupational therapy and hearing/audiology services. The therapists of the PBRC reach a broad cross-section of the community and bring positive change into the lives of countless individuals.”

The Kent Companies and Kent Kwik Convenience Stores are proud to support the PBRC and all of the services they provide to people across the Permian Basin. We want to support the people that support us. Our priority when raising money is making sure it goes to an organization that will use it locally. PBRC does that and it warms our hearts to see the people in our community benefiting from the generosity of our guests.

Bean to Cup Machines Added to 3 Kent Kwik Locations

Schaerer Bean to Cup coffee machines have been added to three Kent Kwik stores. Guests can find them at Kent Kwik 273, 240 TX-302, Kermit, TX 79745; Kent Kwik 316,  4400 W Illinois Ave, Midland, TX 79703; and Kent Kwik 320, 6101 Andrews Hwy Midland, TX 79706.

Each store has three machines with a house blend, dark blend, Texas Pecan blend and decaf blend. The Bean to Cup machines prompt the guest, on a touchscreen, to first choose whether they want hot or iced coffee, then they pick their size and blend. Once all the selections have been made, the machine fresh grides the beans and brews the cup of coffee right there, on the spot. This ensures guests will receive the freshest cup of coffee. A total game changer to convenience store coffee, guest can now receive coffee shop quality coffee without the price or wait time.

As we see how these machines perform in our three test stores, we hope to expand them to more locations. Keep an eye out for these machines at a Kent Kwik near you.

Kent Kwik Team Members Volunteer at Hunt for Heroes

Every year Kent Kwik Team Members, and Team Members from all across The Kent Companies, volunteer at the annual Hunt for Heroes banquet in Midland, TX. This banquet is put on by Show of Support, “a 501C3 non profit organization honoring America’s wounded veterans. Our generous donors allow us to thank these heroes with our annual Hunt for Heroes banquet and supply them and their wives with a week of West Texas hospitality and outdoor hunting adventures.”

Like many companies, we are fortunate to have hard-working veterans on our staff. We love supporting veteran organizations and this event specifically is one our team gets excited for every year.

Kent Kwik In Haskell, TX

Haskell, Texas, will be the newest home of Kent Kwik and Rustic Cafe. This location will be a full-service truck stop complete with showers, laundry, and diesel island. A full Rustic Cafe is also being built to feed the town and hungry truckers passing through. This Rustic Cafe will also have a banquet room available to rent for events.

Haskell sits where state highways 277 & 380 intersect and is 98 miles southwest of Witchita Falls and 55 miles north of Abilene. The Kent Companies is excited to expand it’s Kent Kwik and Rustic Cafe brands into this part of Texas. Incorporating our brands into smaller towns gives us the regular and loyal guests our business runs on. Our goal is to support the town of Haskell and the other smaller outlying communities and become a piece of their hometown fabric.

Look for a grand opening in the spring of 2019.
