WESTBOROUGH, Mass. — Convenience store and fuel retailer EG Group introduced its Cumberland Farms brand to the Florida Gulf Coast and Alabama. It is opening two new Cumberland Farms stores in the area, the first of many planned for the Gulf Coast over the next 24 months.

Both stores will feature the chain’s latest design with the latest amenities and menu.

“We know that Gulf Coast residents and former New Englanders who moved to this area will enjoy seeing Cumberland Farms in their neighborhood,” said George Fournier, President of EG America. “Not only are we strengthening our longstanding presence in Florida, but we are also entering the Alabama market for the first time with the Cumberland Farms brand. Our team is looking forward to bringing our customers a new convenience experience and our premium snacks, on-the-go foods and Farmhouse Blend coffee.

The new Cumberland Farms in Orange Beach, Alabama is 7,700 square feet with 12 gas pumps. This location also has a Sbarro restaurant, with a Burger King slated to open in July. The other new Cumberland Farm, in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, is 6,700 square feet with 12 gas pumps and features a Burger King restaurant.

In February, EG Group announced plans to expand Cumberland Farms to the Gulf Coast by converting most of its existing Tom Thumb stores, in addition to developing new locations. EG Group conducted extensive research that projected the huge growth opportunity for the company in bringing the popular Cumberland Farms brand and offerings to customers in Gulf Coast communities, he said.

Each new location will have a grand opening celebration on June 15 with free food and beverage samples, with grand opening food and beverage deals and additional gas discounts in the coming weeks.
