  • The Spinx Company Chooses PriceAdvantage by Skyline to Replace Existing Fuel Pricing Solution

    PriceAdvantage, a division of Skyline Products, announced today that The Spinx Company has been using PriceAdvantage at its 65 Spinx stores across the Carolinas. PriceAdvantage, a fuel price management solution, has given Spinx the ability to make better fuel pricing decisions given the real-time intelligence provided for each store, such as competitor survey data, volume histories and retail margins.

    Spinx stores also utilize PriceAdvantage to feed price changes to the Radiant POS systems, pump and Skyline electronic price signs with the one click technology that is unique to PriceAdvantage.

    “We couldn’t be happier that PriceAdvantage has replaced our previous fuel pricing solution”, says Stewart Spinks, founder and CEO of The Spinx Company. “It is a superior tool in that it gives us the ability to pull historical data easily, manage multiple price changes per day and provide a user-friendly interface at the headquarters and store level.”

    Spinks adds, “We have found that our store managers are spending about 45% less time entering data into the system since we began using PriceAdvantage, giving them more time to focus on customers.”

    Aaron McHugh, Head of PriceAdvantage division, adds “It’s invigorating to hear from an Industry Hall of Famer like Stewart Spinks that PriceAdvantage is providing The Spinx Company with a more efficient and effective fuel pricing tool.”

    Stewart Spinks was recently inducted into the Convenience Store News Industry Hall of Fame for being a convenience store pioneer and innovator.
