7015 AL-129 in Winfield, AL is a retail gas station established in 2011 and located adjacent to Interstate-22. It includes a full-service kitchen and existing operations, positioned in an area benefiting from highway visibility and regional traffic. Lease structure is sublease with multiple years remaining. The property attracts both interstate travelers and local customers due to its proximity to nearby residential, educational, and healthcare facilities.
Transaction Details:
Rare low-cost entry opportunity for a buyer to take over an operating interstate-exit gas station with a full kitchen, existing sales, and no goodwill premium. Buyer only pays for inventory plus a $20,000 acquisition fee.
Inside sales (last 12 months): ~$46,000/month
Fuel sales: 19,000+ gallons/month
Margins: ~$0.30/gallon (gas) and ~$0.75/gallon (diesel)
This store previously performed significantly higher:
2024: ~$92,000/month inside sales and 45,000+ gallons
Previous dealer: ~$106,000/month inside sales and 81,000 gallons
The drop is due to lack of active management, creating clear upside potential.
Rent: $9,800 NNN/month
Structure: Sublease with ~8 years remaining
The store is currently near break-even due to absentee management and ~$7,000/month payroll, offering strong upside for an owner-operator.

Only inventory + $20,000 fee
Existing sales and fuel volume
Full kitchen in place
Interstate exit location
~8 years remaining on lease
Absentee management upside
Potential payroll savings
