VERC Enterprises wins Best of Plymouth Award for 8th consecutive year

PLYMOUTH, Mass. - March 24, 2015 - PRLog -- VERC Enterprises, a leading convenience store and Mobil/Gulf gasoline operator with locations throughout Eastern Massachusetts and New Hampshire proudly announces receipt of the 2015 Best of Plymouth Award in the Convenience Stores category, an honor it has taken for eight consecutive years to qualify the company for inclusion in the Plymouth Business Hall of Fame.

The Plymouth Award Program annually identifies companies that have achieved exceptional marketing success in their local community and business category; these businesses are recognized for their proven ability to enhance the positive image of small business service to their customers and community through the use of best practices and programs that generate competitive advantages and long-term value.

Various sources of information were gathered and analyzed to select the winners in each category.  This year’s award recipients were determined based on the information gathered both internally by the Plymouth Award Program and data provided by third parties.

VERC Enterprises is among a very small group of businesses to hold the distinction of winning the Best of Plymouth Award for consecutive years; as such the company now holds distinction with a Hall of Fame designation.

“It is an honor to once again receive the Best of Plymouth Award in the Convenience Stores category,” said Leo Vercollone, president of VERC Enterprises.  “And taking a place in the Hall of Fame makes everyone in our fine professional family proud; our commitment to the communities we serve is steadfast.”
