A development corporation formed to serve the public with low
cost brand name fuel and a multi-service, car wash, oil
change, detail, convenience store, ATM, and deli. The ultimate
one stop gas station.
Acacia Group has been recognized as one of Shell’s
biggest producers in the nation. Executives from various fuel
companies visit our pioneer facilities in Encinitas and Carmel
Valley and observe the multi-million dollar gas centers that
are multifunctional and family friendly.
The CEO of Acacia Group Lawrence Kourie, has been nominated by
Shell to serve as a member of the Executive National Dealers
panel.
Redefining “Full Service”
The Acacia Group’s current facilities include,
self-serve gasoline with multiple pumps, a full service hand
car wash, auto detail center, express lube and oil change, a
convenience store, gourmet deli, internet Café, ATM,
T.V., flower shop and children’s play center. These
services are offered in response to the demographics of the
surrounding neighborhoods designating them as the most
preferred and lucrative.
Any number of service combinations is possible. Dry cleaning
could be added to the mix; a brand-name fast-food facility
rather than a deli, the possibilities are not just endless,
but have great potential.
Play Center
Acacia Group is the first in the nation to incorporate play
centers into a service station environment. These play centers
are styled after those most commonly used in fast-food
restaurants such as McDonalds; thereby serving as
entertainment for the children while Mom or Dad accomplishes
any number of errands. (From full service car wash, oil
change, lunch, a full auto detail, to catching up on e-mail at
the internet Café.
Full Service Car Wash
The car wash at the Convenience Service Centers is completely
done by hand and the most up-to-date equipment and products
are used. Customers can view the entire wash process through
large, clear windows while eating in the Deli.
Gourmet Deli
The deli inside the facility offers a tempting selection of
gourmet sandwiches, salads, pastries, fresh baked breads, and
other delectable items. The interior is designed with upscale
finishes; granite counter tops, slate and wood floors, and
bathrooms to rival any restaurant. This sets the tone for a
wonderful lunch experience indoors or on the patio.
Convenience Store
Expanding the concept of the typical convenience store, with
unique greeting cards, gift items, and wine collection in
addition to fountain sodas, snacks and gourmet coffee. The
interiors are beautifully designed and invite browsing while
customers take advantage of our other on-site services.
Express Lube and Oil Change
Living up to the name express, customer’s oil and lube
service is usually completed within 15 minutes. Customers can
benefit from discounts provided by the lube service and car
wash combinations.
Detail Centers
Acacia Group recognizes the need for our customers to have
their cars pampered. Our detail centers employ experienced and
well-trained detailers that strive to make cars look brand
new.
Internet Café
Our internet Café is perfect for customers who liked to
multi-task and catch up on e-mail while their car gets a wash,
detail or lube.
