Valor Oil’s Hop Shops Draw Customers in with a Unique Attraction
Kentucky-based Valor Oil operates 15 Hop Shop convenience stores and is in the process of building its first truck stop from the ground up. The company is investing $2 million in the truck stop, which is in Owensboro, Kentucky. It will sit on about 15 acres and feature a 9,500-square-foot store along with 120 parking spaces.
The newest location will also feature something Hop Shop has become known for—its disco bathrooms.
Hop Shop’s mascot is a mischievous frog named Hopper, and he warns customers not to push the red button in the bathroom. “If you push the red button, that is when the disco starts,” said Tim Dupin, director of store operations, Valor Oil.
